>And who makes these rules anyhow????

It's a convention of online netiquette, and going against this sort of convention is rather like singing off-key on purpose. But I'm sure you understand this.
netiquette

It's hard to adjust to capitals as no books or papers are written in capitals and they are kind of ugly as a whole block of text. frown
I like the cursives. ( or how do you call them )

SHUT UP Avy.....its too easy for him. Its much harder to hit the 'shift key' to get a capital than it is to use the 'caps lock' all the time!

i vow to not use any capitals until luke desists......

Hmm--perhaps I should try moving this thread somewhere else: the last (and only) time I tried, the thing vanished into the ether, never to be seen again.
