I do and I'm happy with that .Actually it took me a while to understand 
that self was just the medio man choice which I really use now only for 
the others.
I usually use capitalized names for classes and same name not capitalized 
as first argument ,after a while it became much easy for me to understand 
where I was reading in the code .... now should I say shame on you because 
you like self? Take it easy with words and have fun.
