yeah, and actually, the more i think about it, the more sure i am that this belongs there. that way we can take advantage of MathTool's existing object-to-number conversion code and the matchType() stuff for return values. and i'm actually almost done with the switch. <grin/> just gotta test and i'll check this in soon. Leon, please protest if you feel strongly otherwise. :)
