a brief education on the origins of "uppercase letters" as used in the modern english vernacular

uppercase letters got their name during the early days of printing. all letters that were used for typesetting were stored in a case, which had an upper and lower section.  the letters were removed from the case and placed in a grid to keep the lines even, and then the grid was placed in the press, which used the letters much like modern-day rubber stamps.  the case that stored the letters was very large, so letters at the top of the case were a bit difficult to reach.  for this reason, capital letters (which were used less frequently) were kept in the upper regions of the case.
