uniform distribution of what? Unit Root testing theory uses asymptotic results, so underlying distribution does not really matter as long as it satisfies some comditions. Check out Davidson "Econometric Theory". You can find there a good intro into unit roots tests. More advanced treatment is in

There is an interesting article called "Sometimes R^2 > r^2_{yx1} + r^2_{yx2}: Correlated Variables Are Not Always Redundant" by David Hamilton in The American Statistician, May 1987, 41(2), pp. 129-134. The paper gives an example in which there is little correlation between y and either x1 or x2

Jim Clark gave a fine answer to the question posed by Sangdon Lee. However, I am curious about the correlation and R-square figures given by Sangdon. Apparently, the R-squares for the simple linear regressions on X1 and X2 are (-.2)^2 = .04 and (.3)^2 = .09, but Sangdon says that the R-sq for the
