title: Boolean.parseBoolean("1") = false...?
body: <p>sorry to be a pain... I have: <code>HashMap&lt;String, String&gt; o</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>o.get('uses_votes'); // "1"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Yet...</p>
  
  <pre><code>Boolean.parseBoolean(o.get('uses_votes')); // "false"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm guessing that <code>....parseBoolean</code> doesn't accept the standard <code>0 = false</code> <code>1 = true</code>?</p>
  
  <p>Am I doing something wrong or will I have to wrap my code in:</p>
  
  <pre><code>boolean uses_votes = false;
  if(o.get('uses_votes').equals("1")) {
      uses_votes = true;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
