Hi Hadley et all,

I am struggling with reshape2 and melt works and melt_check 
(filtered151) seems fine

My cast command was acast (filtered151, Time ~ Species ~ Number)

 > melt_check (filtered151)
Using time, Species as id variables
$id
[1] "time"    "Species"

$measure
[1] "Number"

When I execute cast the data matrix is in the correct order but the data 
values are not included.
Clearly I am missing something.  I expected / need to have the column 
values to  = the values from the input data set for each time block.
