Actually, I have found them quite useful. My GM has a nasty habit of
trying to make sure you miss important info (like the guy in the corner
has an predator in his belt). He also makes you have to get rid of
obvious weapons when trying to be social. This makes concealment a
neccessity.

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved
through a suitable application of high explosives.
