Is it just me? NO, I've seen it a lot on various user-entry sites.

EVen though my spell checker is set to auto-correct TWo INital CApitals it doesn't; all it does is underline the word with a squiggly line. DRives me bonkers.

I think that the response time of the left shift button is slower than my high-speed hunt-and-peck typing. I hit the next letter before the 'shift up' registers.

Can I put in a stronger spring on that button?

PS My GF touch-types rapidly and it does not happen to her.

PPS Maybe is is just PEBKAC. I am too old to re-train.

I must read though too fast, and don't really notice.

I hate software that "corrects" ANYTHING I type.

I find it odd that you make any mistakes at all...

It is hard to be humble when you are perfect in every way.

My problem is just the opposite. My left pinkie travels so fast that the shift key is released before most letters-to-be-capitals are pressed. I constantly go back (three times just here) to correct my capitalization-challenged posts.
