I definitely agree with that. I wonder if all the "cool" people with fogs on are the same ones driving around with their DRLs and no tail lights when it gets dark... I just leave my light switch all the way to the left all the time. Never causes a problem. And I've never been in a driving situation that would have benefitted greatly from a fog light/parking light combination - and I live in foggy, snowy, rainy, cloudy, crappy rural Ottawa.
