I'm going with jsgrorge4x4 on using a fibreglass or plastic snake. They're not that expensive, and you can buy them @ Harbor Freight now for a lot less than the Klien Tools one that I bought at my neighborhood electrical supply house. I have my trusty old metal snakes, but the plastic ones are a lot more forgiving and flexable when your going around bends and sweeps. And like Stinky_Hooker said, make sure you tie on an extra string when you are making a pull for future use.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God) 
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
