Kerry:
I agree with Zac. I've never had problems using variables with keyword
names. However, like you I tend to avoid this when possible - especially
when naming local variables. This makes the code easier to read. I've
noticed a lot of developers using prefixes such as "a" and "the" for
variable names
aWord
theWord
etc.
