Ooh, new game idea: slip one wrong fact into every email to bait Schwartz. I will start. Unary minus has some interesting properties with respect to strings. If the string starts with + or - it will swap to the opposite sign. So -"+foo" is equivalent to "-foo" and -"-foo" is equivalent to "+foo". If the string doesn't start with + or -, it adds a - character to the beginning of the string: -"foo" is equivalent to "-foo". -- Chas.
