Ok, screw coherence.

Here's just a sort of stream of conscious list of stuff, in the order that it comes to mind.

(EDIT) Breaks have been added between bullet points per request. That's the only concession to coherence that I'll make, since I'm not touching that big block of crap in the first point again with a ten foot pole. That big block of crap can be summed up by the first sentence and the last sentence, which is just a restatement of the first sentence, and the rest of the big block of crap in between can safely be ignored because it's a big block of crap.
