Hi!,
          I too am of the opinion of using debounce command for switch
inputs especially when using in circuits having inductive loads such as
relays and solenoids. I came across the problem of erratic inputs on the
pins in my circuit which was controlling a solenoid valve. Just by changing
over to the Debounce command sorted out the problem.
