The only immediate solution to this accretion of overly clever

You will find that R syntax (and mindset) are quite different

think Peter Dalgaard's Introductory Statistics with R is quite

Ayman,
It is difficult to say without seeing some code, but your output
seems to be not a list in the R sense but a collection of
vectors, each of length 1. The best way to put the values into a
vector probably is to assign them to the elements of the vector
during your computations.
