I got a laugh out of this post from Tim Bray:

Going through a bunch of source-code files and and, one by one, removing the dozens of print statements that let you focus in tighter and tighter and tighter on a really obscure problem until you could finally see it. Debuggers are OK, but when the going gets tough, the tough use print.

Uh huh. The "tough" use print statements, the smart grab a better set of tools. Print level debugging is just so 70's....
