lost: capital letters, reward if found

I'm not a big fan of capital letters in titles (see above). I'm also somewhat of a stickler for reasonable punctuation. So why the beef with capital letters?

I blame it on bad habits formed during the rising prevalence of Instant Messaging (or IM for you kiddies). There was so much IMing going on, and that shift key was just so far away, and everyone else was using abbreviations like LOL, ROFL, LMAO (which I hated), that I guess capitals just sort of fell by the wayside.

As you can see from this post, I have not forgotten them entirely, and still capitalize dilligently when writing prose. What can I say, other than: caps in titles just look funny.
