  I'll agree, destroy has no hidden meanings and is easy to 
remember. If 'clear' becomes free, it can be used in other 
things, say a graphics program that clears a editing window.

  I also liked recycle and zero. Dump should probably not be used, 
as having used linux dump to me means you'd want to dump the 
object's data out to the screen or to a file for analysis.
