Usage notes:

• We'll use this page for brainstorming.
• Once we get to a point where a video is realistically going to be recorded, we'll move the notes to their own page and hammer out a proper script.
• Scripts should not be considered complete; as a general rule, they are intended as guidelines.
  • Every word spoken, typed, etc. need not be (in general) scripted.
