Yup, I noticed! I wonder whether the copy editor
capitalized those two instances and missed the
others, or lower-cased most and missed those two.

But it's quite well written, I thought, and gets
most of its facts straight, so I'm inclined to
cut the Times just a bit more slack.

Is it possible that web publication, being more expedient and  
immediate, are held to a different standard? Later editors, for  
hardcopy publication, actually read it and then further edit it as  
appropriate.
