I shoot in manual for the same reason Inkista gave: consistency. I use flashes a lot, and those are in manual mode too. Somehow I find it difficult to understand how exactly the chip in my camera comes to a decision about a good exposure, especially in the combination with TTL flash. In manual everything is quite simple: nothing changes unless I change it.
