Hey Didier,

Hey I'm taking a quick survey. I always write it out as SPAM, or
SPAMming, or SPAMmers. In fact I insist on always making sure I do to
emphasize it.

I get a lot of heat for doing that, including people yelling at and
flaming me and posting links regarding Hormel's Trademarks and requests
that I not capitalize SPAM unless I'm referring to the canned mixture of
lard and salt.

Even on LQ I get harassed for it.

So... I'm interested in knowing why you spell SPAM in all caps too, if
you don't mind.

No, I'm not kidding.

Also, if you know of any links to support the reasons behind doing so I
would like if if you shared them with me (So I can arm myself with them.

BTW, whenever I get flamed for calling SPAM SPAM, or calling those who
engage in such SPAMming activities as SPAMmers, I don't dignify it with
a response, which seems to anger people even more - but certainly,
there's no doubt whatsoever what I'm talking about when I spell it in
all caps and it's very effective in getting the point across.
