Anyone want a How-To on unseizing lock cylinders?

I had to go through this with my car a little while ago. The pass door and truck locks were so completely seized that there was no way I could work them with the key, it would have snapped off inside. The drivers door wasn't much better. A few people at Reading IX may remember one of the mornings, where I couldn't get into my car for a while. Since many of you have remote door locks (and working power locks), you may not use the key in the pass door very often, giving it a chance to stick and seize.

So whadaya think, anyone want some pictures and instructions?
