"Cut" function not working

Apple is never going to enable the Cut function in Finder.

It has something to do with user interface inconsistencies and the great fear that files will get sucked into a great big black hole if Apple ever decides to implement a Cut and Paste feature for simple file management.

The argument goes that whenever a user "cuts" something, that something will disappear like the text in your word processor. Hence, when a user "cuts" a file, that file, too, will disappear and all anarchy will break loose on earth.

And so They have grayed out the Cut menu item for Finder to protect us from ourselves.

But I digress. I just love the cute little green button. I never know what it's going to do when I click on it.
