You've seen the question - here's what I pack:

One (1) multi-tool Swiss Army Pocket Knife
One (1) multi-tool Park Allen wrench set
Three (3) plastic Park Tool tire levers
Two (2) 700x25 Spare Tire Tubes

Pretty much ditto except i prefer a framefit pump to the CO2 -a long pump can double on dog defense. Add in a good compass if you're going 'way out in unfamiliar territory. Someone else recomends a minimum $5 bill. This all (except the pump of course) goes under the seat. Cell 'phone, inhaler, and ID go in the jersey pocket. i ususally don't carry med kit but do reading glasses as i'm pretty much blind inside 5' and don't do well repairing by Braille.

Arm/leg warmers can be stashed in a jersey pocket.

For long hauls and sketchy weather where weight and fashion isn't so much a concern, i like to use a Karrimor saddlebag to stash raingear or extra jersey. Traditional sadlebag and bar bags come in handy.
Sounds kitchen-sink, but it beats hell out of getting stranded in bum****.
i prefer a pump as well. i carry similar to your list, brian. add to that some extra batteries for the lights, a small amount of duct tape, and a mini leatherman tool w/ needlenose pliers.

and minus the fanny pack.
My list is a bit smaller. I carry 4, 5, and 6mm allen wrenches, a 6" adjustable wrench, Gerber clutch, two tubes, patch kit, 35mm film canister of needed meds, spare bulbs, and snacks. I also use a frame pump.
