Documentation updates and fixes
* Nixed some of the mongodb references--pretty sure we're done with that.
* Fixed some awkward language.
* Fixed : :: stuff. Sphinx lets you do :: so you don't need the additional
colon.
* Turned a paragraph into a .. note:: section. That makes it easier to
notice and read.
