The english language has a lot of rules, especially regarding capitalizing a word.  Here are the rules:

• The first words of a sentence
• The pronoun “I”
• Proper nouns (the names of specific people, places, etc)
• Family relationships (when used as proper names)
• The names of Gods (Exception: Do not capitalize the non-specific use of the word “god.”)
• Titles preceding names, but not titles that follow names
• Directions that are names (North, South, East, and West when used as sections of the country)
• The days of the week, the months of the year, and holidays
• The names of countries, nationalities, and specific languages
• The first word in a sentence that is a direct quote
• The major words in the titles of books, articles, and songs
• Members of national, political, racial, social, civic, and athletic groups
• Periods and events
• Trademarks
• Words and abbreviations of specific names (not those that are general)

Some of you may have noticed I always capitalize the word Customer.  At times some have questioned this as being improper english.  Well I have not always been a rule follower; I just strive to do what is right.  In my opinion capitalization places emphasis on important words, such as the name of people or companies.  Why would the name of a company be more important than the Customers that make that company possible?

So to me, the capitalizing the ‘C’ in Customer will always be my rule.
