Likewise.  We're clearly talking past each other here.  You haven't 
managed to convince me that there is anything at all wrong with returning 
-Infinity for `Math.max()` or that my interview question is flawed.  And 
I certainly haven't been able to convince you of the benefits of 
enforcing simple laws about how a function's inputs and outputs are 
related.

I think we are done.  I'll let the excellent answers from Ben Bacarisse 
and Stefan Ram serve as the final points I would have liked to have 
made.  The rest of our discussion seems to have devolved into *ad hominem* 
and typical USENET flames.  I apologize for allowing that to happen.  I 
don't normally.  I believe there are only two others with whom I've 
exchanged nasty flames on comp.lang.javascript, and with them the 
provocation was much longer-lived, and I believe my response was much 
more justified.  I should have simply ignored the personal stuff and 
stuck to the technical arguments.  I'm sorry.
