 I never use SMALLDATETIME because it is soooo proprietary and does not
 match the FIPS-127 requirements.

 SomeDate >= StartOfInterval

 Mostly style and portable code.  The BETWEEN predicate reads so much
 better to a human.  I would prefer OVERLAPS and some of Rick
 Snodgrass's operators if i coudl get them.

 Yeah, yeah!!  But I hate 5to split a single concept (between-ness) into
 muliple predicates.  I also hate a change of ORs when I can use IN(),
 etc.
