Resetting Gnome's Settings in Ubuntu

Linux Journal has a great bit about how to reset GNOME specific settings in Ubuntu when things go wrong.

http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/resetting-gnomes-settings-ubuntu

Basically, if you've been customizing and tweaking and somehow end up completely borking things this can undo all changes (like a nucelar option) and set it back to it's default state. This is just for GNOME settings, it won't help you repair damage you did to graphics drivers, x-server, etc. Just GNOME.
