Ha! I just grabbed that link for you! I've used the rotafix method to remove a fixed cog that broke a shop's chainwhip, too. If you do install a cog this way, just put it on "tight," don't go "really tight" or "infinitely tight."
I tried a BB ring as a jam nut, and it didn't work, but I've heard it works for other people. I slow down by pedaling slower, but I brake with brakes. Riding fixed with kids is great, if they tend to weave in front of you, or brake erratically. You just slow down without even realizing it. Also, I've found that a single drivetrain allows a higher "comfortable" gear than simply not shifting a derailleur'd bike.
