Given the number of posts to the team-ada mailing list thinking it's
about *either* the American Dental Associatian *or* the American
Disabilities Assoc. I think that the capitalisation is
important. Especially as one is very definately correct and one very
definately incorrect.
There have even been people posting to cla confused about what exactly
we talk about in comp.lang.* ;)
This isn't just to make the group easier for the particpants to read,
but also to make it easier for people to find the information that
they're looking for.
