I have to say, this is the best explanation of not using capitals that I have ever heard/read. It was almost enough to convince me to forgo capitals as well.
But not quite.  |
Whilst at University, a friend studying to be Language teacher always maintained that learning French was excellent as she thought it sounded like you were always swearing. So Zelda should be well equipped. She also thought learning German was excellent as it sounded so sexy.
I always had my doubts about her. My friend, not Zelda. I have no doubts about The Zee....

funny German motoring terms.
thwack.
Ouch Thwack.. THUD.. Arggh.. Okay, okay, I'll get back on topic (or shut up....)
