SANTACLAUS and EASTERBUNNY are REAL but JESUS isn't.

In my world, all FORTRAN variable names were yvzvgrq gb n yratgu
bs fvk punenpgref - so we would have SANTAC and EASTER, both of
which are indeed REAL.

They weren't actually limited, but characters beyond the limit were
ignored.

But is that better or worse than having SAN....... and EAS........?

Ask gargle.
