How to be an incredible idiot in 6 easy steps:
1) Spend 3 days trying to convert a userscript to 0.6.4.
2) In frustration try adding unsafeWindow to pretty much every variable and 
function you use or create.
3) Sign up to a mailing list just to ask for advice.
4) When converting tabs to spaces (for posting) notice that you misspelt 
unsafewindow once.
5) Discover it was the only reference to unsafeWindow needed to make the 
script work.
6) Bang head against desk repeatedly.

I am going to have another look (or 2) over my other script that isn't 
working before I post it.
