with over 2,000 posts i think it's fair to say that no one has spoken so much and said so little.

When someone posts without using capital letters, you're supposed to inform them that their SHIFT key is broken, rather than make the implication that they actually want to write like that. When they avoid using lowercase letters, you inform them that their CAPS LOCK key is broken.
Since it's much easier to read things written with correct casing, and not significantly harder to write this way, I can't understand why anyone posting in a public forum would avoid using proper casing, small paragraphs, and otherwise following conventions that make their writing more readable.
But if you're going to call someone to task for failing to do so, you've got to do it correctly.

for the record, i think that it's Caps Lock. if you're going to accuse someone of faulty grammer, don't you at least feel you should use proper grammer when you do it?
now go ahead post ATKINSON, or any of that other schtick you (and, for the most part, only you) find so funny.

No, there are no basements in sunny Austria, the land down under (this is a common mistake among newbies; an easy way to distinguish Austria and Australia is to remember that Austria is the country, while Australia is the continent). This is because Austria is on the opposite side of the Equator to the Northern hemisphere, which means that gravity actually pulls in the opposite direction to what you're used to. There would be no point to basements because everything in them would quickly fly up into the air and disappear. Hence homes in Austria instead have "verandahs", also known as "porsches", to keep out the sun (and keep everything else inside). It's a traditional Austrian dream to own your own home with a white porsche out the front.
Hope this helps!
