Chain Cutting Tip

I had someone email me the other day asking how to cut chain. Honestly, it's something I never really thought that much about before, even though I use chain fairly often in my jewelry designs. I guess that I just go at it with my wire cutters and don't really stop to think that maybe I'm doing it wrong or maybe there's a better way to do it and I'm just clueless about it.
So, I have been looking around the web wondering if I'm alone in just whacking away with cutters. Maybe I am. I'm not sure...
