Errata - just to keep the grammar police at bay, and more significantly to attune my mind to looking for these kinds of errors in the future. I told you writing was hard work; this is mostly cut&paste from other old posts of mine, but I should have done a better job of editing.

Para 2. Elided "is" after "material".
Para 3. Should be a colon or period after IP; the comma is confusing.
Para 5. Superfluous comman after "studies" in sentence "First is...". "not" duplicated before and after parentetical in sentence "A large part...". "it's" should be "its" in the parenthetical.
Para 7. Superfluous commas. The runon sentence should be split.
Para 8. Word "reason" duplicated.
Para 9. Superfluous commas in the first sentence.
Para 11. Terminating preposition. Clumbsy construction of following sentence.
Para 18. Superfluous material, appropos in thread but not here.
