Lower case i

I don't know if anyone else agrees with me or not, but there's one thing that borders on irritable when it comes to reading. It's when writers use a lower case i for the first person singular.

Am I just being pedantic?

I don't understand what is irrititating about using lower case for I (i). First I recommend you don't read any of e.e.cummings poetry - next I recommend you avoid my book (Language of Souls) too. i works for me just fine in poetry. David Taub - www.ukpoet.cjb.net
