I consider spelling someone's name correctly to be a basic part of
showing respect for that person. I consider capitalisation to be part
of that spelling; and I consider wanton misspelling of someone's name
to be disrespectful.
In turn, what I consider to be Aaron's continued disrespectfulness
affects my impression of his character. And I'm sure my explaining
this foible of mine will affect your impression of my character :-).
ObPalmDev: I also wonder how people who are too lazy to use the shift
key in prose can bear to program on Palm OS, considering the API's very
ShiftIntensive InterCapped ApiNamingConvention :-).
