In fact, in other fiction books, the character and place names are really variables as well, since they're just fictional names that represent the character. However, in this book, the variable names were more explicitly such. I have a list of the variable names, or abbreviations, as I called them near the start of the book, after the forward.
Someone brought to my attention that if you're reading this book in e-book format, it's hard to refer back to the list of abbreviations; so I thought maybe it would be helpful to just put the list of abbreviations in a blog here, to make it easier to refer to when you're reading the book
