Hi Paul, You outline some great suggestions!

Just wanted to point that out as I really like your general approach you've outlined, and just wanted to point out that there's an easy work around in case someone else tries to institute such a regime but is getting friction due to that point in particular. Good stuff, though .. thanks for sharing that! -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology | Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center | Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
