My 2.002 yen worth on Hungarian notation:

It violates an old programming dictum: "Debug the code, not the comments!"
Although they APPEAR to be part of the code, the compiler does not enforce
the prefixes. Therefore, nothing is to prevent me from doing the
following:
long    sShort;
Sure, maybe it started life as a short, when suddenly (perhaps much
later), I find I need a long. Normally I just change a few header files,
perhaps, and that is that (I know, I know, it's not quite that simply in
RL). My point is, looking at the variable name will lead one to expect a
short, when one is receiving a long. This example may seem a bit
contrived, but there are plenty that are not.
