C and C++ standards guarantee the sizes of char, short, int, and long.
char has at least 8 bits, short has at least 16, long has at least 32
and int is somewhere between short and long.

To me, this:
long i;
unsigned short j;
is more readable than this:
Int32 i;
UInt16 j;
I guess this is a good subject to fight a holy war over :)
