Actually, when I read a post in all caps, I feel like the writer is
shouting at me! :-) (What a way to wake up in the morning!) I personally
find it HARDER to distinguish between all caps because THERE'S LESS WHITE
SPACE BETWEEN THE LETTERS AND IT TAKES MORE WORK TO DETERMINE WHERE ONE
WORD OR SENTENCE ENDS AND THE NEXT ONE BEGINS!

My personal opinion :-)

have a nice day
