A pick is louder.

That was so well put..especially this part.......

just depends on what I'm playing and what mood
I'm in. using a pick is great for those times you want to really dig
in and whack the hell out of the thing

It's a lot like making love (or masturbating) ....find out what satisfies
your partner then "dig in".
In this case you are your own "partner".....

For me it is ALL about self expression, emotional release, and satisfying
the needs of my soul

little more subtle, using your fingers is better - you can pick out
certain chords and produce more voicings than you could with just a
pick. i used to play classical guitar, so it's more natural to me to
use my fingers, but I still like to hit it with a little bit 'o
plastic every now and again

yeh that's a fair call.
i tend to lean towards a pick but believe the greats incorporate the hybrid
(pick and fingure) tenique.
