Here are a few dozen minor edits to fix, as discovered in imposter_05.pdf

Instead of opening multiple Issues, I've simply stuck checkboxes before each, so you can indicate which ones you've addressed, at your convenience.

okay, time for sleep while my brain digests all this CS stuff!
(BTW: thanks for pulling all this into laymans terms. I"m getting some great refreshers, and lots of stuff I should already know. Cheers!)
