No problem! 

Everyone (me included) loves Euler angles because we're used to thinking 
that way.  Then one day your new manipulator code runs into that 
singularity and strange things start happening (Where did that roll come 
from?  I only have controls for heading and pitch!) 

Suddenly, quaternions (or orthogonal vectors in this case) are the 
coolest thing ever  :-)
