When I went to that list I was specifically looking for underscore.js and date.js. Seeing a serious project that does not use these libraries makes me twitch.

Personally I prefer Moment.js over Date.js, it hasn't let me down yet and their site + docs are great.

Maybe you couldn't see underscore.js because it was written as "Underscore"? Or maybe you didn't read the article…
Yeah, underscore was there but date wasn't. I guess my point was that there wasn't a date.js or some reasonable equivalent time library because date/time programming sucks.
The title says: "A List of Foundational JavaScript Tools" seems like those could be useful but not foundational. Right?
