New submission from John Runyon: the documentation (https://docs.python.org/2/library/threading.html#threading.Timer) lists "threading.Timer" as a class. It is not, which means that (for example) you can not use it in isinstance(). "threading._Timer" is a class. "threading.Timer(...).__class__" is a class. "threading.Timer" is a function.
