That's a *lot* of material to address. I'm going to try answering in pieces, just to keep everything compartmentalized better. Otherwise, we're *both* going to end up confused on this stuff, and that's not going to end up very well. :-)
Since there will be a number of different sub-topics that I'm about to create, please be sure to quote liberally so I've got full context for follow-up questions.
