Hi James,

Thanks for the tips.  regardless of how long one has been online, refreshers on the Basics are always helpful.

I must say that I do have a problem with all caps, except as you've noted, when they are used for emphasis.

However, I have just as big a problem with someone who uses all lower case.  It's unprofessional in my opinion and the first thought I have is that they either don't know how to type or they're just plain too lazy to take the time to Capitalize when it is called for. 

Just my Opinion, any Comments?

Thanks Again My Friend,

Phil

Phil, I believe the lower case stems from instant messaging on cell phones. In the early days, it was very difficult to capitalize because of the nature of the beast. Nowadays, that has changed, and it is much easier to capitalize the way it should be done. Basically, those who are using the new technology are just lazy, because now, most people understand the jargon used by the earlier technology. If anyone else has any input on this, please share your opinion. Thanks,
