To each his own, but that sound like a strangle place to put a

Why Bill? He's just trying to keep the blades from turning. You are
right - a finger could easily do it, but there is nothing wrong with using a
screw driver either. Methinks he wants to keep his fingers from getting
dirty...
A soft plastic wand (for the princesses) or wooden popsicle stick
would be a lot safer around electronics, boys and girls.
Except you are doing this with the power DISCONNECTED. And HOPEFULLY
before strting to blow the air. Sticking a screwdriver into a rapidly
spinning PC fan WILL remove blades.
Not only that, I ground myself before sticking my hands in the case!
Which you can't do if the comp is unplugged and in the shop.
Compressed air creates all -sorts- of static electricity.
