I also can do the stretches on poly's.. after using them so much, you get used to the slipperiness and it becomes natraul.. then you play(for example) nano's and you're like"wtf is wrong with these strings..?" heh

I change mine every 2 months. I don't let them get really bad, I like it sound good than save money.

you know what, now that i've gotten better I think i like playing a heavier string. I put D'addario extra lights on my strat and they feel way too light. And i bout martin xtra lights for my acoustic, i almost don't want to even put them on. :cry:
