Kevin,

Again thanks a million. It's nice to keep hearing encouraging and helpful 
replies. I successfully installed everything and all works as it should. 
For anyone who might run in to such an issue, where either R or Julia and i 
suspect any other kernel, to make sure you have the latest version of all 
software installed (Jupyter, Julia, Python, R, etc). Then add the kernels 
from  the official software website.
 
What caused my problems is that i did not have the latest of Jupyterlab. 
Once I uninstalled and reinstalled it then adding the kernels did not take 
more than 10 minutes. I could write down the steps, but i suspect these 
things change so fast that detailed instructions may not work for others.
