In that case, Doug, why concern yourself with this thread at all?

Because some people will insist on using them in threads where I do have an interest. Their justification is that "everyone uses them". Well, everyone doesn't use them – I don't for a start. The only way I can get this across to people is by standing up and saying "NO!" as loudly and as often as possible and, for that, I make no apology.
