I have thrown points in many ways. Always, before the unhappy dance, which is sort of like a stomping, and kicking the nearest object, type of dance, the object, being animated, or not, and all the while, uttering the secret unhappy lithic words, while inhaling, and exhaling, and speaking the words, in a agitated, and terse manner. Almost as though you were very upset.
I don't know about the manner in which you are talking though. I don't get many points that want to come out of the rock.
I do get a lot broken, knife blades, that sometimes are morphed into simulated arrow heads, or something like that, because they usually have at least one pointed end. Mostly a lot gravel. I wish I could make points like those, and do so consistently. Anyway, good article.
