Clean lenses are over rated anyway. I've seen more lenses damaged by overly anal cleaning than by dust.
One photographer I know was quite famous for the look of his images, sharp but slightly misty. Many had speculated on just how he got that look. Actually it was an accident, he told me. He never put lens caps on his lenses, and stored them on a shelf in the living room of his apartment face up. He is a heavy smoker. After a few years of this his lenses developed a nice patina, and his photos looked just the way he envisioned them. I won't name names, but he is a Pentax user/spokesperson and has shot a number of the Pentax calendars in the past.
