Speaking only for myself, prior to joining Avodah and Mesorah, I had no idea that all this was so complicated. The vast majority of posts on these topics go far over my head, but I have gained a real and deep appreciation for the rich and varied development of both the speaking and writing of Lashon Hakoshesh over the many lands and centuries that we've passed through.

I cannot vouch for it's accuracy, but if anyone would like a taste of these topics from a scholarly perspective, Wikipedia has a lot of articles. I'd suggest starting at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiberian_Hebrew and branching from there to the many linked articles.
