eastern vs Western - not60yet
Posted: Sep 27, 2014
This is a ? about encephalitis. In the word book, eastern (lc) equine viral encephalitis and Western (UC) equine encephalitis.
Anybody know why eastern is not capitalized while Western is capitalized? Makes no sense to me! 
Thanks!
Lower case both of them - sm
