I am surprised e.e. cummings http://www.ablemuse.com/erato/ubbhtml/wink.gif has not been mentioned on this thread at all.

I've waffled and wavered.

But as of this week, I say if a line is a line is a line
(by which I mean if a line has any meaning at all as a line in its own right and not merely as a pusillanimous excuse to look artsy-woopsy) :
then capitalize the first letter.

To hades with the wimps.

There is no point in resurrecting a TEN YEAR OLD thread - especially with an inane post such as the one you made, Chris! The topic has been discussed many times since 2002.

(Allen, I suspect you didn't notice it's an ancient thread. There's no need to reply to me - in fact, please don't.)
