This looks good to me, too. One or two things have changed since it was 
written, though - in particular mgcv does have summary and anova methods, 
and mgcv::gam can handle smooth interactions using s() or te() terms 
(gam::gam can handle smooth interactions using lo() terms, which behave 
more like mgcv s() terms rather than te() terms).
