I guess my point in asking the questions wasn't to get
people to complain about it.  I was making a point. 

Why should we nitpick about something that may add a few
seconds to our procedure's runtime instead of using
something that is more intuitive.

I go with intuitive for the most part.  If we were really
*that* worried about a small performance gain, well,
websphere salesmen would be flipping burgers.
