The docs for PreserveSingleQuotes() say that it takes a "variable" as an argument. Because lcase() returns a string, you're not technically passing it a variable anymore. You're passing an actual string. While I don't think it's actually a "bug" (like I said), it seems like it SHOULD allow you to pass any string to PreserveSingleQuotes(), whether it's a variable or an actual string.
