Does Surv in psm handle interval2 data?  The argument list seems to indicate it 
does but I get an error.

Thanks,
Chris

# code
library('survival')
left <- c(1, 3, 5, NA)
right <-c(2, 3, NA, 4)
Surv(left, right, type='interval2')
survreg(Surv(left, right, type='interval2') ~ 1)

library('rms')
Surv(left, right, type='interval2') # error
args(Surv)
psm(Surv(left, right, type='interval2') ~ 1) # same error (of course)
psm(survival::Surv(left, right, type='interval2') ~ 1) # runs


# output
