Somebody earlier was actually advocating something
called proper_case, in which you can capitalize
certain letters for clarity,  like
test_for_Heisenberg_uncertainty.

Regarding acronyms, I'm curious about how people
interpret PEP 8 for the following.

Acronyms:

   get_HTTP_response
   get_http_response

Abbreviations:

   get_file_id
   get_file_ID
