I made a slew of minor edits.  Here were some impressions that I didn't have
enough information to fix: 

Announcements @ http://book.pharo-project.org/book/announcements
* I'd like to see a short explanation of the trade-offs involved in
announcements vs. simple message sends.  The page speaks vaguely to this,
but I think it would be very valuable to have a "Smalltalk Best Practice
Patterns"-style description of the pros and cons of each so people can make
informed decisions in their projects.

Fixing underscores @
http://book.pharo-project.org/book/TipsAndTricks/FixingUnderscores
* I wasn't sure whether this was an instruction, a suggestion, or merely an
option.  Is this necessary? personal preference?  Again, some background
would help.

List of Plugins @
http://book.pharo-project.org/book/Virtual-Machine/VMPlugins/VMPluginsList
* "GeniePlugin : This plugin implements the functionality of" ???
* "SurfacePlugin : This plugin is a fake" uh, what, lol

Traits @ http://book.pharo-project.org/book/Traits:
* This one I found very tough.  Especially the initial part of the
BulletinBoard example.  I wasn't sure how I would play with the example in
my own image.  For instance, what should the subclass of BulletinBoard be?

* "BoardListener new listenAndReact
makes sure that each time the method announceNewAddedItem is executed on the
created bulletinBoard, the event is received by the listener."  Does it?  It
seems to just write to the Transcript, and not be connected to the listener
at all.

* "Open an inspector on the expression above" - which expression?

* "! Going deeper
When applying a trait to a class it may face different situations."

* "!!Using Alias to access a hidden method"  This section (the beginning
anyway), seemed to describe something different than the title here.

It's great to have a resource like this - let's squeeze all the juice out of
it.
