So, Paul, if you wish, take a look to this applescript's feature too (at
least here, AS 1.9, OS 10.2.2), which can be a little weirdness:

_._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._
set num to "99308635802599" as number
{num, num as string}
--> {9.9308635802599E+13, "9,93086358026E+13"}
_._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._

string-ize a BIG number equal or up to "E+13" rounds it!? =|
