interesting. Particularly as you point out, when the Boolean object is 
cast to a literal it always evaluates to true. That would seem to 
default the purpose of having a special Boolean object no? What does a 
Boolean object do, that a generic Object doesn't? Rhetorical question - 
seems like it's high time I went and read the ECMA-Script spec !
