No, I am not stark, raving mad. So in the thread where **Young Rand** wants some e-huggles, you will see this.

I wanted you to see this: “KITTEH PICS NOW!”

It did not work. I don’t know if the board is doing this, or if my browser is doing this. I tried a few versions of the post that says “ONCE.” I tried a bunch of combinations to see what would convert from caps lock to proper capitalization, and I think this is where we are:

1. All caps - Converted
2. One properly capitalized word, followed by all caps - Not converted
3. One word only, containing four or less letters, in all caps - Not converted.
4. One word only, containing five + letters, in all caps - Converted

That is all.
