I had a huge string and wanted to put a double-quote on each end.  The
boring:

    '"' + huge + '"'

does the job, but is inefficent <snort>.  Then this transparent variation
sprang unbidden from my hoary brow:

    huge.join('""')

*That* should put to rest the argument over whether .join() is more properly
a method of the separator or the sequence -- '""'.join(huge) instead would
look plain silly <wink>.
