SPD clipless for me. I like the connected feeling, especially when I'm tired and mindlessly grinding into the wind or up a slight grade. When I ride platform pedals, I get a subtle sense of something not quite buckled in that's just like the feeling I get if I drive a short distance without buckling my seat belt. It's a very slight sense of vulnerability, totally in my mind, but I'll stick with being clipped in.

I keep them adjusted rather loose by hardcore roadie standards. I very occasionally pull out of one of them on hard acceleration, but that rarely happens (the hard acceleration part) on my touring bike.
