Greetings,
Are those of you who hae started using all upper case letters in your posts
aware of the fact that it is considered very rude to do so in
e-correspondence? This is a longstanding etiquette rule of the internet
community. All caps is understood to be the equivalent of shouting at people.
Furthermore, it gets hard to read for more than just one or two rare words of
emphasis.
