Light or no light?

So this is a question that I come across a lot. And I got to thinking: What do YOU prefer?
I have always used light right when my seeds go in the ground. So is there anyone that does not use light?
Post your opinions and don't bash on what other people say.

Well, If Im planting seeds in a planter, I will always have the lights on. I believe the slight heat of the lamp encourages growth.

Gravity, light, and heat are how the sprout knows which way to grow.

I germinate in the dark, but once they go into the soil, i have two 18 watt 1' T12s on them.

yeah I think it's standard to have a light on them before they sprout especially if the temps are a little low. I just generally don't reccommend people use HID lamps before they break when a small cfl is more than sufficient.
