lib/debugger-commands.html

    -- In d(own) command, "older" should be "newer".
    -- In u(p) command, "newer" should be "older".

lib/node201.html

    -- In third paragraph, "used that" should be "used * that", where * 
    is: in, with, for, or something else.

lib/module-thread.html

    -- In the Caveats section, "exit_thread()" should be "exit()".

lib/module-time.html

    -- The "altzone" language is confusing.  "0th meridian" probably
    should be "GMT" or "UCT" since we're talking about time, not
    longitude.  And use of "0th" leads to confusion in English.
    The first meridian runs thru Greenwich; always has, always will.
    Readers expect English, not C'nish, else "Sunday as the first"
    on the same page is wrong.
    -- Same for "timezone".

lib/module-thread.html

    -- What is a "main thread"?  Newbies consider threads to be
    light-weight processes and the main program's process is not
    light weight and thus not a thread and thus not the main thread.
