Whats your favorite way to clean the sensor in your Pentax DSLR?

I always make people cringe when I say this, but I use canned gas, specifically Dust-Off. To all the nattering nabobs, I say I've yet to damage anything ever using canned gas. I ran a poll one time over on ForumsNeurotica when the whimperers of doom cried that surely the sun would explode and all life in the solar system would be obliterated in a cataclysm of fusion because of my habits regarding sensor cleaning, asking if anyone could come up with a bona fide and reputable report about canned gas wrecking a camera.
The silence was astounding.

Caveat: Always squirt a wee shot of gas anywhere but inside your camera before blowing off the sensor on the off chance that there actually is some liquid propellant in the nozzle. On the very rare occasion that I need a wet clean, I use a visible dust swab and whatever is in the ridiculously overpriced bottle of poo that I had to buy to keep my pusher happy.
