Does it cost to give proper variable names

Atleast give a proper name to variables in the code. It just needs a little imagination, nothing else. It makes life easier for everyone, including the original programmer.
 
How the heck am I supposed to figure out what variable names like svc1 and svc2 mean ?? (Of course, I can, but why keep a margin for error, along with incurring wastage of effort and time? )

The lake below


Sample this - nostalgic, back to the 70s

A throwback to the old times... No Quarter by Led Zeppelin. The live version from the album "The Song Remains the Same"
 
This track seems to be based on Norse legends, based on the lyrics (snow, Thor, steel armour). What exact incident, I do not know since I dont have much idea about Norse history. But it sounds good, whatever. Even though Led Zeppelin have often been accused of being inspired by the devil, etc. (The Stairway to Heaven case).
 
 Close the doors, put out the light
You know they won't be home tonight
The snow falls hard and don't you know
The winds of Thor are blowing cold
They're wearing steel that's bright and true
They carry news that must get through

Archaeological Survey of India ? Scientific ?

Scientific as in the science of archaeology or the science (art rather) of ar*e licking?
 
 
 
C Dorjee, director (monuments), ASI, stated in the affidavit: "The ASI is a science and technology department. The issue has to be approached and examined in a scientific manner. While due deference may be given to the feelings of the petitioners, the issue cannot be viewed solely relying on the contents of a mythological text."
 
 
I say there is no proof of the existence of Prophet Mohamed and Jesus and Allah or any other God or his prophet.
 
1. We know how much ASI is a department of science and technology. We do know about the Siddhpur cover-up and the Taj Mahal cover-up.
2. There is scientific and historical proof that Babar destroyed the Ram temple at Ayodhya and built the Babri masjid on the ruins. What about the scientific manner of ASI now?
3. Stop calling it mythology or mythological.
4. The koran and the Bible are a lot more mythological than Ramayana. While other countries have objectively gone and dug up in most corners of the earth to establish the truth and lies about Jesus (I give credit here, this is not possible with islam. If islam says something, there is no proof needed, accept it or else we bomb, rape and kill), the "scientific" ASI has instead abandoned the Saraswati civilization remains, indulged in half truths, full lies and cover-ups. Have they ever sincerely investigated Dwarka and Kurukshetra.
5. Since there is no proof of Allah and prophet Mohamed, lets demolish the Babri Masjid.
6. Prophet Mohamed was a pig eater, and the hair in Hazratbal is actually a donkey hair. Does ASI have any proof that he wasnt ??

No evidence of Ram

The government says that there is no evidence of Ram. Well, there is no evidence of Jesus, Yahweh, Mohamed or Allah either, in that case. (Yeah yeah, I know, but anyone can pluck hair from their beard or a horse's tail and claim that its a "relic of the Prophet" etc). In fact, there is no evidence of any God at all, for that matter.
 
 
God or no God, the point being missed that the Ram Sethu is a natural formation (lets accept for a while that its not man-made) that has some sentimental importance. What about the importance of that place, it has sentimental and spiritual value attached to it. Imagine the Japanese blowing up Mt Fuji or Greeks demolishing the Thermopylae pass, etc.
 
Meanwhile, TN declares reservations for muslims and christians. The quota is to be carved out of the 30% OBC quota in the state. Thank God for the small mercies..
