I disagree; I think ALL CAPS are essential for distinguishing the TYPE
of posting from the content of the subject line. (I say this because I
noticed that some people on copyediting-l stopped using the caps, and
my comprehension of categories subsequently diminished.) I'd rather
not read anything labeled HUMOR or CHAT.
