 * Support for several rqlite-specific operations:
   * `Leader()` and `Peers()` to examine the cluster.
   * `SetConsistencyLevel()` can be called at any time on a connection to change the consistency level for future operations.
-  * `Timing()` can be called on a per-result basis to retrieve the timings information for executed operations as float64, per the rqlite API. 
+  * `Timing` can be referenced on a per-result basis to retrieve the timings information for executed operations as float64, per the rqlite API. 
 * `Trace(io.Writer)`/`Trace(nil)` can be used to turn on/off debugging information on everything gorqlite does to a io.Writer of your choice.
 * No external dependencies. Uses only standard library functions.
