Haha what a f*&$up. I only remember reading about that rumor many years ago so I just blindly quoted what I found on Google.  :P

Maybe the caps make you notice the first and last letter faster...I don't know. I don't think I'm going to retype it and see if it works with lower letters...that would take me all day.... :D

The caps worked for me too.  I read through that as quickly as I would if it was typed correctly.  I bet I would read it slower if it were morning here.

The only word I had a problem with was IPROAMTNT. All the rest I read right through.
