computer savvy people, why the **** am i getting random capitals

[Sylvia]

our family capital

Sylvia, thank you!!!

As you can see ;-) it worked. I had checked out the autocomplete options, but not the add-ons. Lo and behold, there's an add-on called Spellchecker, which is now resoundingly turned off.

I still have no idea why the spellchecker felt the need to capitalize words like call and people, but at least I can type without my brain boiling over.

I love TE :-)

You're welcome. I'm glad I could help.

Hey malkin, I once had a cellphone that I spilled juice on and the keys started dying on me. First the middle one, nr 5. So I had to write without using words containing j, k or l. Then nr 7 died, so no p, q, r or s. I started getting creative, substituing nr 3 for s, and nr 1 for l. By the time the third key died no-one could understand my texts anymore, so I had to get a new phone...
