Cindi, Thanks for the hug, I was almost a quart low.
YEAH, All caps is for emphasis only!
I too don't like all lower case.
There is a reason why conventions were adopted for upper and lower and the need continues and continues to be met by most sentient writers.
If you aren't a cockroach trying to use a type writer (you know the literary character to whom I refer) and can't easily manage the shift key then maybe lower case would be tolerated if the literary content (such as Archy's verse) was worth the trouble.
I wondered why the little typist didn't jump on the caps lock to get a capital letter and then jump on it again to release it. Oh well, sometimes it is just better to suspend disbelief and critical thinking to go with the flow of the story.
