Why does everyone here capitalize lax into LAX? I love the game and yay for more shots of it as it gets more popular but i just find that a little funny. anyone else noticed this?

    Becasue when I see "lax" instead of "LAX" I think it looks like an abreviation for.....laxative. rolleyes1.gif

    Funny you should say that. I think of Los Angeles International Airport.
    Airport code "LAX".

    Good query, although I'm quite sure "everyone" overstates the case. Anyway, I propose the following guidelines (which, if adopted by consensus or by default due to lack of opposition, will thereafter be strictly enforced rolleyes1.gif :

    "lax" = as defined by Webster
    LAX = Los Angeles International Airport
    Lax = lacrosse, whether used at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence (a great sport deserves to be Capitalized.)
