Discussion on: What ever happened to putting the object type on the left?

Delphi has always used the "sMyString: String" right-side syntax. But it's an interesting point you bring up.

I feel that it's also more readable because we usually read from left to right, therefore, I get to see the variable name first instead of a data type, which is way more helpful IMHO.
