     As shibboleths go, "It's Ada, not ADA" is a nice one to have around,
clearly demonstrating which of us are the truly knowledgeable.  On the
other hand, I have often seen printed titles (on viewgraphs, in technical
journals, etc.) in which every letter is upper case except for the "da"
that ends the name of our favorite language.  Come on!  It's not a holy
word.  It should obey the same rules as any other word.
