Some of the e-mails also __3__ words, or sentences in red. But, are capital letters really so ___4___ Some people think so.
"Many people use capitals to show their anger," said Nigella Marston, a writer. "Actually, it is a way of ___5___" So, what should you do if you're angry and you need to send an e-mail
