Ceiling fan- Yay or nay?

We're working on the lighting layout for our kitchen, and we're undecided on having a ceiling fan. We always use them throughout the house, as we like to 'cheat' the A/C a bit by keeping the thermostat around 80, and we open the windows whenever reasonable. Our current kitchen has too low a ceiling for a fan, but the ceiling in our new house is 9'6". I know fans aren't good with a gas range, but that's not an option. My wife worries about it being a cleaning problem because of the grease in the kitchen. What do you think? What has your experience been with a ceiling fan in a kitchen? The kitchen is 12'6" X 14'6". There is no island. Thanks for your input!
