wesm/pandas — Issue #386: DataFrame.dtypes reports all object dtypes even if items aren't object dtype

I'm not sure if this is just an error on my part, but I have

````python

>>> dataset

Index: 17788 entries, 10000 to AFFX-r2-P1-cre-5
Data columns:
ID 17788 non-null values
Sample 1 17788 non-null values
Sample 2 17788 non-null values
Sample 3 17788 non-null values
dtypes: float64(3), object(1)

>>> dataset.dtypes
ID object
Sample 1 object
Sample 2 object
Sample 3 object

`````
As it can be seen, "dtypes" reports "object" for all, but the columns aren't really all of dtype object. Is this intended behavior?
