Snorkels... Do you find them a help or a hinderance?

Hey Folks,
There is no coral reef where I swim so I find it interesting that more and more fitness and tri swimmers use snorkels during workouts but almost no collegiate team swimmers do at my pool. Has anyone found them to be a great help? By having free flowing air aren't you cheating yourself?

I've tried the Finis snorkel, but I've never been able to use it without inhaling the pool through my nose. (I've tried it with a nose clip, but then I feel like I'm suffocating.) So i guess my answer is that I find them a hindrance. :frustrated:
