It still gets sent over the network, and it still takes up disk space. And it is petty. I will probably ask my wife to start typing all of my queries and replies. She is Chinese. Chinese doesn't have upper/lower case. As such, she often doesn't capitalize "correctly". And, her grammar is probably not up to your standards. This list is better off without the grammar, spelling, and style police. If you can't figure out what someone is saying then "you" should not feel obliged to read it or answer it. -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
