I see your two and raise you a nickle. You're absolutely right about
that. I went back and read it again. This looks quite buggy to me. IMO
the quotes should prevent dereferencing and evaluation as a number.
Yuck!

Of possible interest is that the breakpoint is around 1.796931348E308:

put "1.796931348E308" = "1.796931348E308"
  returns true
put "1.796931349E308" = "1.796931349E308"
  returns false
