Tooks time:

I agree, so much so that I often feel that we all run the risk of 
missing the big picture for fear of the details.  But, that's neither 
here nor there.  Now, onto the Book 2 discoveries...

I always thought that the Malfoy's other possible contraband should 
have lead somewhere.  What is it that he could possibly have - more 
of TR's things?  If so, how did he get a hold of them?  Did he 
receive them directly from LV - being so high up on the DE chain - or 
perhaps Lucius went to school with TR?  Maybe Lucius's father did and 
was given the diary, who he then passed on to his son?  And those are 
just a few questions swimming in my head on that topic.

In reference to the "Lord Voldemort is my past, present, and future" 
comment by TR, I don't believe it's just an off-hand comment.  If you 
consider what JKR said about how we should question what LV did to 
stay alive and add to that the "misprint" of DD telling Harry that TR 
was, indeed, the last remaining ancestor of SS it seemed a rather 
harmless.  But, although I fail to remember where the quote came 
from, JKR explained that despite it was a misprint it was not 
technically untrue.  There is an interesting prospect - what if TR/LV 
uses a time-turner (cliched, I know).  Doing this TR/LV could remain 
alive for ever, in one sense or another, and all the other remaining 
facts could remain true.  

Okay...that's all I got.  Hope it all made sense and wasn't too out 
there.
