pulling points

[Aussie]

I wish I was closer to the states sometimes. There's always shit goin on over there! Like the AGI ... I'd be able to whizz over and be back home in time for the flameworker's exhibition which opens on the auspicious date of 9 september 2008 :/
anyway, I checked out the agi site and saw that Roger Parramore is going to talk about the "evils of pulling points". He was in Australia at the start of this year but I missed him because I was busy watching sunsets and sunrises over Angkor Wat in Cambodia at that time. I heard from a couple of people who attended about Roger's techniques in regards to not pulling points etc.

so it got me thinking about pulling points and the two sides of the argument, and also wondering what the argument actually is. personally I pull points every day for almost everything I do and I don't feel one bit evil about it ... actually, I think it's the shizzle that allows me to do anything I want.

so what's the story with you guys? .... do you pull points or stick handles on or both?
