This has been debated and debated over and over again. If you want to 
read a nice concise article on the subject that covers pretty much 
all the territory we've covered, check out this page of the Lexicon:

Feel free to pass that URL on to the folks on that newsgroup.

I have a feeling that most people on this list would rather not go 
back into it. This subject has come up several times and each time 
we've walked over the same ground in infinite detail. Check the 
archives if you want to follow those discussions, by all means.
