Kidding aside, I've been criticized for being too formal when I email or
post (nick pointed out that nobody could have thought that baggypants 
was really him, since it was properly punctuated and capitalized  ;-).
But for chrissake, this is informal speech, more analagous to chitchat
around the proverbial water cooler than to an english paper.  Why bother
to break out the style manual ?  Just let it flow, man.
