__dirname is path.dirname(__filename), but its docs, specifically the
attempt to describe javascript scope in terms of "running" and
"executing" had drifted apart. Rework to describe one as a variation of
the other, move the example, and just describe the names in terms of the
module, and it's local variables rather than the ill defined execution
concepts.
