    When you push the brake you are reverse pressure bleeding the clutch slave. 
    Some people dont own a pressure bleeder (like me) so this is a way to 
    pressure bleed with nothing more then your car plus a few feet of rubber 
    hose. There is a coiled section of the metal line to the slave cyl that 
    holds bubbles very well too, the reverse method brings them out a little 
    easier from what I've found.

    I forgot to mention earlier, you can watch for bubbles in the fluid 
    reservoir to see progress, but you can't always see them.
