Well... sucking causes a more laminar airflow over the heatsink surface -> less air molecules touch the hs surface.
I think, blowing is the way to go. By the turbulences, caused by the fan, more molecules will touch the hs surface and therfore move more heat away...

We discussed that a looooong time ago and what you read above is the conclusion from this discussion.
