Log message:
    Alter documentation of boolean type, add example.  Someone figured that it
    wasn't clear that the "boolean type" was actually called "boolean".  Add
    tip about "casting" booleans using CASE.

    Spell check whole file.

I have boolean listed as BOOL in one of the tables in my book.
Confusing.

Both are accepted. Folks got used to "int" == "integer" way back in the
past, and they'll cope here too ;)
