Tire sealant

The guys at my bike shop rave about using tire sealant and act like it fixes all problems. Twice I've said I was going to buy some hard case tires and the answer is always "no no no all you have to do is put some of this stuff I have for sale and you'll never have a flat"

Funny how in just a few months of riding I've become very good at fixing flats.

Actually the first time I fixed a flat I was shocked and a bit horrified to see how thin tires are these days. I hadn't rode since I was a kid when bike tires were built like car tires. (I can remember riding through stickers all day and never giving it a second thought)

So now the question.....

How many of you out there use tire sealant in your hard case tires?
