we are glad that you are doing your best.

your if is structured like this,

if talk == talk.capitalize or talk == talk.downcase
puts 'What? Sonny speak louder! Like THIS.'

if talk == talk.upcase
puts 'no not since'
end
end

wc means that the 2nd if is nested inside the first if, ergo it does not get called if you entered all caps.

another tip: use indentions (wisely)
