In my own defense:
I was asking a simple question:
will highly correlated cause an irregularly high R^2.
My answer to my own question is "no" it can't..
No-one here was able to give me this answer and I believe it is
correct: if your sample is large enough,(as mine is) then "no",
multicollinearity cannot affect your R^2, it will only affect the
coefficients and their signs and errors.
