"VS" or/vs "Or"?

What do you think is more appropriate, "Vs" or/vs "Or"?

In comparison to what exactly? It depends on the situation.

Personally, I think "versus" is confrontational.

"Vs." does seem more confrontational. But when you think "or", you really realize you can have one or the other, certianly not both. hmmm... it is a condundrum.

Or is neutral. Some of the most sensitive fans have told me Vs is like a boxing match -- after all, it means "against". Irresistable Bitch versus Lady Cab Driver... oh why should two lovely songs have to fight?

So I'm squarely in the "or" camp on this important issue.

Not at all. We Orgers strive to remain true to the Uptown ideal and should have no use for such negative terms such as versus. smile
