Um...GUEST...she actually talks like that when she gets excited about some topic. I know her, and she does. It's not screaming, though, it's just sort of an emphatic mode of speech. It's often accompanied by interesting gestures and facial expressions too, but those would be hard to render on a keyboard. (Study the William Shatner acting technique for further insight into the possibilities of dramatic expressiveness while speaking.)

However, no harm in drawing her attention to current computer etiquette.

She used to do weird stuff sometimes when we were walking downtown in Barrie too, causing me to edge away nervously, hoping people wouldn't think I was with her. I should've got a T-shirt saying "I'm not with (arrow -->)"

day-liah has just got a rather expansive personality, that's all... :-) It's one way of coping with the long Canadian winters.
