I agree! I wish everyone would get it through their heads that it's simply not appropriate for most apps. Except for, like I said, oddball date calcs and, as Jeff Mason said, except for scientific calculations of extremely large and extemely small numbers in the same mix.

I am thinking that if you are using SQL Server to calc the distance to the next galaxy, you might need to apply for a larger instrumentation budget. :D
