Not so great when you want to type lower-case letters though. ;_;

Bands now love to write their song titles this way -- it's like the new spotty old computer type that every band was using. You know... like http://www.mountzionpress.com/cover_copy.JPG. That's been real popular for a long time, that typewriter font.

i never use the caps lock key, sometimes i forget it is there. tho sometimes i accidentally hit it when meaning to tab and end up being SHOUTY--maybe it should be moved to a more convenient place, like not on my keyboard at all.

It makes your kneecaps lock in whatever position you're in, forever.

THE MORE THE MERRIER THE SPLATTERIER

Back around 1996, we had a show the producers were here in Little Rock and the host of the show was in Carlsbad, New Mexico. To communicate with him, our engineer rigged up a very primitive chat session screen to link our two locations. Through this, the producers would tell the host what the weather was like in Arkansas and what callers were waiting on the line.

Since it was all done in realtime and we couldn't change each other's font (it was almost like we were co-writing a word document together), we arranged it where the host would write in lower-case while the producers would write in UPPER-CASE. That way, it would be easy to skim and it would appear more conversational.

One day, we had this Phish-head guy working the show, and he and the right-wing host were having trouble communicating with each other. At one point, I told him to write to him in ALL-CAPS, and the hippie said to me, "But I can't, it would be like I was yelling at him."

I just remember the tone of that guy's voice when he said that, and to this day, I can't stand it when someone tells me to stop "shouting" on the internet. It's like, omg, my calendar is shouting FEBRUARY at me right now!
