I create an object then use it from main()
Why? Fewer "static"s to type, and I can write multithreaded console apps
safer.
Mainly because I'm lazy though :)

Why?
If you must, you could implement IDisposable, but with empty stubs, etc,
but what is it giving you?
If you are using "using", you can't add anything to the finally block so
it will just call dispose (which is not doing anything), and if you want
to catch any exceptions, you're going to have to use "try..catch"
anyway!

Why not just forget about using either?
