Okay, if I type into the Script Editor:
     set homeDir to posix file "/Users/mreed"
(at this point many of you already know what's coming) it magically transforms into

set homeDir to file "Macintosh HD:Users:mreed:"

I find that the simplest method to preserve syntax is to set the string into a variable.

set f to "/Users/mreed"
set homeDir to POSIX file f
