+
+  The statechart allows for complex state heircharies by nesting states within states, and
   allows for state orthogonality based on the use of concurrent states.
-  
+
   At minimum, a statechart must have one state: The root state. All other states in the statechart
   are a decendents (substates) of the root state.
-  
+
   The following example shows how states are nested within a statechart:
-  
+
       MyApp.Statechart = SC.Object.extend(SC.StatechartManager, {
         rootState: SC.State.design({
           initialSubstate: 'stateA',

           stateB: SC.State.design({
             // ... can continue to nest further states
           })
         })
       });
-  
+
   Note how in the example above, the root state as an explicit initial substate to enter into. If no
   initial substate is provided, then the statechart will default to the the state's first substate.
-  
+
   You can also defined states without explicitly defining the root state. To do so, simply create properties
   on your object that represents states. Upon initialization, a root state will be constructed automatically
   by the mixin and make the states on the object substates of the root state. As an example:
-  
+
       MyApp.Statechart = SC.Object.extend(SC.StatechartManager, {
         initialState: 'stateA',
 
         stateA: SC.State.design({
           // ... can continue to nest further states
         }),
-      
+
         stateB: SC.State.design({
           // ... can continue to nest further states
         })
       });
-  
+
   If you liked to specify a class that should be used as the root state but using the above method to defined
-  states, you can set the rootStateExample property with a class that extends from SC.State. If the 
+  states, you can set the rootStateExample property with a class that extends from SC.State. If the
   rootStateExample property is not explicitly assigned the then default class used will be SC.State.
-  
+
   To provide your statechart with orthogonality, you use concurrent states. If you use concurrent states,
   then your statechart will have multiple current states. That is because each concurrent state represents an
   independent state structure from other concurrent states. The following example shows how to provide your
   statechart with concurrent states:

     we want to call a calculate method on the current states where the method
     will return a value when invoked. We can handle the returned values like so:

     a callback function is given, it must be the last value supplied to this
