Would you normally roll through a stop sign if you can see there are no cars coming?

There's a stop sign close to where I leave in the county. When I approach that stop sign, I slow down and look and if there's nobody coming, I roll on through without stopping. If I come to a stop sign where I can't see the road and have to creep out, I do stop. I would never pull onto a road until I can see there's nobody coming.
So, what do you think? Do you make those so called "rolling stops"? Additional Details Thanks chris2EM for your answer.
That's exactly what I'm asking, if you're in a habit of making rolling stops. I'm not really in the habit of doing it, but I do it sometimes if I'm in a hurry.

The Truth
Yep, I do rolling stops at times. I know I shouldn't be doing it, but it's a habit. If I'm coming to a stop sign, I usually make a full stop. But if I come to an intersection, I have a clear view and see no cars, It just feels stupid making a full stop just to prevent a collision at a hair-raising speed of 3 mph with car that may or may not be there.
Rolling stops are nothing new in California (That's why rolling stops are also called "California stops"). Not saying it's a good thing, I'm just saying it's what many, many Californians do here. |

Nope I stop. I make sure I totally stop at a stop sign, maybe not for long enough by a cop's standard(only stop to make sure the car is stopped, not like any time), but I stop and go if there is no one there. |

if by rolling stop you mean roll to less than 5mph, yes i do those, only because i ride a bike and i dont feel like putting my feet down, and then having to launch again. I dont do fast rolls ever. |

No. STOP means STOP. If you're in that much of a hurry, leave earlier. |

No. I've seen a lot of crap happen and it's not worth it. just because you don't notice something doesn't mean it's not there. |
