[Elecraft] Capital letters on reflector

[Jim Lowman]

Same goes for those of us who programmed IBM mainframes.

All caps don't bother me for that reason.  However, I understand that it 
does bother some people, so I avoid it.
What bothers me more is "textspeak," especially failure to use mixed 
case.  Not capitalizing the letter 'i' when used as a pronoun is irritating.
