#1 & #2 size nuts and RPs. 5-Oct-2006 At 7:40:36 PM macboy78

Just looking for some opinions on the use of really small nuts and RP's. Being fairly knew to the wonders of trad climbing (I'm almost over my total fear of anything but bolts).
I've been advised that the small nuts and rp's in the 1 & 2 range are really only suitable for aiding and probably wouldn't stay put in a decent fall. So far I haven't had to use anything smaller than a #3 RP, but I'm sure as I get into some more serious leads I may have to use the wee ones.
So I suppose want I really want to find out is, is this advise accurate and what are the smallest pieces people really trust?
Forgive me if I sound like a total blouse.
