I was implying that there is no reason not to try.

More directed at people who seem to actually not give a damn. i do honestly hope that no one actually falls into that category. But i stick by the statement if they do - chalk users or not.

I don't really see much reason for this debate to go on any longer - if we've all finished arguing then maybe we should leave it be. All points have been heard whether accepted or not. There's also been a lot of repetition so without trying to be condescending could we all please read the thread before posting :)
