[Platforms] Upper/lower case

[francis Mitchell]

Marilynn:

  You change one problem, then you create another (sigh).  
Uppercase/lowercase generates this:

New additions;

    IMARPE 5;   NODC code 65CH; definition = Instituto del Mar del Peru 
(so that is upper case).

    Mar Mediterraneo; NODC code 65CI; fishing vessel

    SNP-2;  NODC code 65CK; built 02/1999   (I have seen references to 
the vessel B.A.P. SNP-1 but no definition, so this is undefined)
 
    Pacifico; NODC code 65CL; fishing vessel; built 03/1996

    Note:   Our spanish speakers here do not  have any information on these.
