Help -

Some time ago, on one of these groups, yet another discussion occurred
on whether programs should be coded in upper or lower or even mixed
case letters.  Someone claimed that lower case was better, because our
eyes are more trained ("used to") to lowercase letters -- does anyone
have a reference for this, or any related studies?

One of my profs thinks I'm making this up, and I need proof :-)
Thnaks in advance.
