Re: AIS: iris ignominy (from iris-photos)


I really like using CAPS in this discussion forum because there are so
many irises named after people.  (i.e., I hate EDITH WOLFORD because she
died here, versus I hate Edith Wolford because she died here)  Adding
quotes would also work, but I like caps better - faster visual scanning
for info.

But I see no need for CAPITAL letters for cultivar names in the R& I's
or other publications if the rest of the world has gone another
direction.

<......do we really
                   have to print cultivar names in CAPITAL letters? The
rest of the world has chosen a
                   convention of Title Case in single quotes....I am
curious to hear what everyone thinks......Robt R Pries>
