1. I have an itchy trigger finger with the Ignore Button on RPG.net, and avoid the RPGsite like the plague, since it seems to be wholly populated with the inadequates who remind me why I am often embarrassed to get so much of my income from writing RPGs ("who do you write for?" "Oh, er, well, I did a book for the Student Christian Movement..."). Every so often, I get validation for those feelings. That is all.
2. Good solid philosophy outline.
3. As for loving D&D, well. Me and AD&D had a tempestuous, passionate relationship when I was a kid. We broke up when I was 18. I had been conducting an affair with Vampire: the Masquerade for some time, and AD&D and me didn't part on the best of terms. Recently, I've effected a reconciliation of sorts, and I'm seriously intending to go play D&D again. One of the things that changed my mind about it was the affectionate series of articles entitled I Was a Goblin on pop culture site Freakytrigger, particularly the one about levels and why they're a good thing. Recommended.
