Stupid fastener question

[mr.utility at highstream.net (David Utley)]

  I have used the original nut and washer at least a half dozen times, with no 
trouble at all...  

  I think would be more likely to have more trouble if it was actually a bolt, 
than a nut/stud...  The only fasteners that I know of that have a one-time use 
on our cars should be the rod bolts and the head bolts...  Did I miss any 
other one?
