So who's right?

Okay,
I've sent my script to two editors and the formatting corrections were different. Being writers we're self-taught so my questions are:
1. Scene line - when moving from one scene to another, and it's continuous do you write ex. INT. LOBBY - CONTINUOUS ? Or just INT. LOBBY?
2. One editor taught us that if you wish to bring attention to a sound you capitalize. Ex. A sudden PUFF of wind rushes through the open windows. The drapes FLAP and SNAP.
While the other editor is telling me no capitals. So who's right?
Also - anyone know where I can get my hands on the script to The Secret of My Success (Michael J Fox) Another way I'm teaching myself is reading scripts, see what is written and visualizing. I've already checked out Simply Scripts and Scripts-0-rama and neither has it.
thank you, Tree
