I'm pretty much like Bob. I too have played with several modelling
programs but have yet to find one that allows me to be as creative
as I am with pure hand coding. Even those times I find a nifty
utility or download an awsome mesh off the internet I play around
with the object for a short time then move on to my own creations
again. I doubt I have posted more than a couple of images to the
the images groups that were not 100% my own creation. But this debate
comes up often enough that I won't discourage others from doing
whatever it takes for them to achieve the results they are looking
for.
