 JSON decoding of floating point numbers sometimes loses accuracy. e.g.

 {{{
 '{"http:\/\/www.schneier.com\/blog\/archives\/2010\/02\/10_cartoons_abo.html":
 {"postrank": 8.1, "postrank_color": "#ff883d"}}'
 }}}

 MacRuby
 {{{
 {"http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2010/02/10_cartoons_abo.html"=>{"postrank"=>8.09999999999999,
 "postrank_color"=>"#ff883d"}}
 }}}

 Ruby 1.8.7
 {{{
 {"http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2010/02/10_cartoons_abo.html"=>{"postrank"=>8.1,
 "postrank_color"=>"#ff883d"}}
 }}}
