I mostly agree with the ten reasons. But there are a few good reasons to allow spanking as well (Stormy put it better than I could). I think it loses its effectiveness when a child passes a certain age, and most certainly should not be used on a regular basis.

You might also find it interesting that the Supreme Court of Canada recently came down with a decision setting out limits on spanking.
