And how about those capital letters?
According to standard grammar conventions, you should only capitalize the first word in a sentence, in addition to proper nouns. Capitalizing every word in the sentence, or even just most of them -- as you often do -- is usually understood as emotional shouting.
So I make typos One ! at the end of a sentence How about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So you make typos, indeed.
So, people misconstrue that as dramatic emotional shouting.

I am just explaining to you why other people had the reaction they did.
Trust me -- I am used to your posting style at this point, and think nothing of it.

The kindle PW 2 leather cover can fit in my jeans pockets, but the more common scenario is to wear shorts with cargo pockets. On days that are not sunny, inner pocket to fit my kindle is one of the things I check before buying a jacket. One of the things I´m looking forward to is the shorter length of the Oasis, because although the kindle usually will fit nicely, it tends to extend a bit making it impossible to close the pocket. (I´ll find how big a impact the new one will make in a few days I guesss).

What are you talking about? I don't have any exclamation points in my posts. No drama just the facts to give good ideas.


Sure you do: I see two. They look like this: !

What he's further talking about is the capitalization of words that do not begin a sentence.

Go back and look at post #5.

I am delighted that by guys you actually meant guys! There's few things I find more irritating than being addressed, in a group, as "you guys." Even if there's not a guy among us.

Carry on.

To me, "you guys" is gender neutral and I frequently use it that way

If I am in a dress and heels then yes I expect one to acknowledge I am female.

Note: The last time I dressed up not for a funeral, my neighbor that has known me 40 years took a picture. It was a special occasion as he had never seen me in a dress.
