I'm more or less in the same boat as you. Though, designers I work with use a 
grid, but I
see a page differently and can recreate it in html with out the need of a 
million classes
for columns.

Again, this is a feature of (some) Grid Frameworks and not of Grids per se.

AS I already have said Grid Frameworks use grids in specific grid systems, but 
they are not
the same as grids.

Columns are not the same as grids either, even though you typically peruse 
columns when you
use grids as a tool for solving problems. That you use columns doesn’t mean you 
are using
grids as effectively as you would if you had your own grid system present in 
your design
work.

Of course, in some work of some design artists there will be unintended 
consistent invisible
grids to be found, but that would be the exception I think.

I think we're going round in circles here. I originally asked about 'Grids'. I was told (probably rightly) that I should have asked about 'Grid Frameworks'. Now it's become a 'Grid System' that I should have. Never mind, the chief thing is I'm not going to worry about it any more.
