Erick, believe it or not, these requests come to this forum pretty often, and there's not really a lot in it for these architects to take the time to write answers to long list of broad questions.
A more likely approach is to find a architect in your local area, and interview them personally. Maybe you can offer to take them out to lunch, and ask your questions in that setting.
Someone in your local area has at least that much social connection, and by interviewing them live and taking the notes yourself, you're making it a lot less work for the busy professional.
You can find local architecture firms in your local yellow pages phone book, or in the very extensive online listings in the Archiplanet wiki:
