While this DOES work, there is a simpler way. For future reference:
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
if you really want to make sure things don't get corrupted, the '755'
can be changed to: ... u+xw,go+x ... which assumes that the perms are
dr--r--r-- already.

Good for you. There are just different ways of doing things. If you
want to change just the files to read only, specifing '-type f' to
indicate ONLY regular files.
