DISCLAIMER: THIS IS ALL MY OWN OPINION (my educated guestimate opinion, but still), THIS IS NOT PROFESSIONAL. Do NOT sue me, PLEASE, and tell me if you think any of it is WRONG. I make mistakes, but this is what I've learned, so it SHOULD be pretty accurate. I keep getting just as confused as you are about the darn info out on the web, but this is how I made sense of it after hours of research.

Here are my answers to questions about...
