Non-locale-specific floating point numbers

I want to write some C# that converts between floating-point numbers and
strings in a non-locale-specific way. That is, I want decimal points always
to be ".", etc. The simple overloads of Double.ToString() and
Double.Parse() change their behavior depending on locale. I'm considering
creating a static en-us locale and passing it to the overloads of Parse and
ToString that take a locale, but is there a better way?

So you at least agree with me that it should be consistent with toUpperCase -- all strings should have a single canonical toUpperCase, a single canonical toLowerCase, both should define equivalence classes on the mixed-case input strings, these should be the SAME equivalence class, and equalsIgnoreCase should implement and embody the corresponding equivalence relation. ...
