The nuances of "split infinitives" drive me crazy ... I know the rules but I keep breaking the rules for reason of emphasis. Help!

Jim, go ahead and split them. It's perfectly fine, and good writers do it all the time. If a phrase works best for you with a split infinitive, then that's what you should do.
