Why are my coefficients getting appended with a 1? It borks a match I
do later against the original list that doesn't have the random 1
added to the end.

linearModel[[1]]

The linearModel function that is easiest to find appears (on the basis of its help page anyway) to be designed as a dialog control function rather than to be used in the manner you are illustrating. Of course I could be wrong about which package you are using, and the the appropriate use of linearModel, but why not see if you don't get more expected results with:

lm(formula = modelSource ~ +UNITBUILD + UNITDB + ITBUILD + ITDB +
       UATBUILD + UATDB + HOGANCODE + RCF + ReleaseST1 + ReleaseST2 +
       ReleaseBLA + Small.Bank.Acquisitions + HLY.NewYear + HLY.MLK +
       HLY.PRES + HLY.MEMORIAL + HLY.J4 + HLY.LABOR + HLY.COLUMBUS +
HLY.VETS + HLY.THANKS + HLY.XMAS + HLY.ELECT + HLY.PATRIOT + EOM,
       data = mcReg)



Call:
lm(formula = modelSource ~ +UNITBUILD + UNITDB + ITBUILD + ITDB +
UATBUILD + UATDB + HOGANCODE + RCF + ReleaseST1 + ReleaseST2 +
ReleaseBLA + Small.Bank.Acquisitions + HLY.NewYear + HLY.MLK +
HLY.PRES + HLY.MEMORIAL + HLY.J4 + HLY.LABOR + HLY.COLUMBUS +
HLY.VETS + HLY.THANKS + HLY.XMAS + HLY.ELECT + HLY.PATRIOT +    EOM,
data = mcReg)

Coefficients:
(Intercept) UNITBUILD1 UNITDB1 405.8326 -8.5675 13.5029 ITBUILD1 ITDB1 UATBUILD1 33.0950 -6.1938 0.2625 UATDB1 HOGANCODE1 RCF1 -3.7793 -3.4825 5.3243 ReleaseST11 ReleaseST21 ReleaseBLA1 13.6911 -9.4573 -3.3526 Small.Bank.Acquisitions1 HLY.NewYear1 HLY.MLK1 36.6445 -92.5360 22.1168 HLY.PRES1 HLY.MEMORIAL1 HLY.J41 7.1886 -13.0013 -14.3520 HLY.LABOR1 HLY.COLUMBUS1 HLY.VETS1 -0.9740 -16.9177 16.2969 HLY.THANKS1 HLY.XMAS1 HLY.ELECT1 -15.9056 -65.9887 -10.9916
           HLY.PATRIOT1                      EOM1
               -20.2531                   15.4775

Now all the variables with a 1 appended are factors so is that normal
behavior? (if so then I can adjust the match() command to pad a 1 to
the master list.)
