In my previous post I was speaking more to the naming conventions used
in Ruby. Variable names are lowercase_understored and constants are
UPPER_CASE_UNDERSCORED.

The mechanics of Ruby don't enforce this convention, outside of
presenting a warning when "constants" (any variable name starting with
an uppercase letter) are changed after initialization.
