Capitalization implies a hierarchy, that some letters are more special than others.

There's never going to be a great misunderstanding of me. I think I'm a little whacked.

I have never used steroids. Period.

People had taught me what Christians believe, but no one had told me how Christians live.

There is no economy in having one operation produce a part and another separate the good ones from the bad ones.
