Hi there,
Did you notice in OOTP that Harry's words were sometimes in uppercase? 
Many times in fact, many more than we'd ever seen before. The CAPSLOCK 
mood seemed to define Harry in that book. He was transitioning from a 
child who'd been kept in the dark about his life, his future, to a 
young man who would be capable of handling the knowledge by the end of 
the book. This involved a good deal of anger and that anger was 
depicted by the uppercase letters. So no harm is meant by this 
distinction, just a short-hand way of referring to so many of the 
things Harry experienced and felt in OOTP.
Hope this is helpful.
