Sidenote: I heard recently on the radio that the reason it is called
upper case and lower case was that in the old bookprinting times (I
think it was from Guthenberg if I recall correctly) the capital letters
were stored in the upper case (drawer) while the small letters where
stored in the lower case. And from this the names came. Can anybody
comfirm this?
