Capitalization

No, no, not a post about the financial travails of the American entrepreneur...

Merely musing on why in a world that no longer will waste an upper case letter on a personal pronoun used to refer to God, er... the God,... the Times Online or a typesetter, or webmaster, or stylebook editor in it's employ, would write a blurb about a Cavalli opera thusly:

LA CALISTO

Take one virginal nymph and one randy God and you have the saucy plot of Cavalli’s 17th-century opera.
Royal Opera House (details above), opens Sept 23

Just wonderin'....
