            Description

            The semantics of parseBoolean (http://download-llnw.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Boolean.html#booleanValue()) says that and string is parsable as a boolean.

            So Boolean.parseBoolean("yes") = false;

            This may cause unexpected results for the user.
