It is perfectly adult-like Gary. It is my opinion, along with anyone who has ever done any reading comprehension research that caps are harder to read. This has been proven time and time again through lots of research. Therefore any site that uses caps in a block is missing a trick.

Here is the wiki page on it, so you can see it is not just MY opinion, but anyone that knows anything about typography and comprehension:

Miles Tinker, in his landmark work, Legibility of Print, performed scientific studies on the readability of all-capital print. His findings were as follows:
All-capital print greatly retards speed of reading in comparison with lower-case type. Also, most readers judge all capitals to be less legible. Faster reading of the lower-case print is due to the characteristic word forms furnished by this type. This permits reading by word units, while all capitals tend to be read letter by letter. Furthermore, since all-capital printing takes at least one-third more space than lower case, more fixation pauses are required for reading the same amount of material. The use of all capitals should be dispensed with in every printing situation.

All Caps and Type Settings. The perceived legibility of a series of headlines was reduced by over 20% when the setting was changed from caps and lower case to caps only.

You, and they, are more then entitled to disagree with all the research though. That's what life is all about, isn't it Gary. Different opinions.

And you are more than entitled to not read my site. A shame you are being so rude about it, but I will defend to the death your right to be rude. It is a free country. Your opinion is as valid as anyone else's.

Thanks man. I knew we could settle our differences and become pals.

You made a typo, I fixed it. Thanks for the support. Appreciated.

As I said, there is no fee for the work I did correcting your site. Use it with my blessing. Just a sign of the love I am feeling here now.
