Can any one tell me what is meant be 1) World Space 2) Clip Space 3) Tangent Space? One by one, the peguins steal my sanity.

I have no idea, but ill guess that world space is all the space in your world, clip space is all the space in the veiw frustum.

Tangent space generally refers to the space relative to the surface of a polygon. It is used primarily in lighting effects (such as dot3 bumpmapping) to find the light vector relative to the surface.

OK, So then can anyone tell me how I calculate the tangent space vectors?
