Hi there. Welcome to DU. A bit late I know but we've never crossed paths before. Now that we've got that out of the way, let me offer you a little friendly advice. No sarcasm at all, I really do mean to be helpful.

First of all, spell check. I know, I know, it seems silly, but people really will respond better to your posts if they are at least spelled correctly. Some people (and I admit I am one) will notice straightaway if your spelling is poor, and deduct points from any argument you make because of it. Second, and more important actually, turn off the caps lock key. Seriously, remove the thing from your keyboard if the urge is too strong. Pry it off and microwave it on high for about 8 minutes. Caps are fine used sparingly to emphasize single words perhaps, but any more than that and you sound like a refugee from 4chan and we wouldn't want that now would we?

Again, welcome to DU. We are glad to have you.
