title: alert() return different from console.log()?
body: <p>Should I be using alert() for debugging; or is there a time to use alert() vs. console.log()?</p>
  
  <p>I see that alert() and console.log() can return different results. I assumed that they were similar functions but just returned in different places.</p>
  
  <p>Back story: my boss likes to see alerts() during development but I can't get the object details in the alert (at least not easily).</p>
  
  <p>But when I run the same request through console.log, I get the object and all of it's parameters.</p>
