also, i have a typo on the fifth to last line of what is pasted below (
should be fxdatac not fxdatab ) but it doesn't matter. what i said about
the results still holds. thanks.

Subject: update on my weird problem
as jim pointed out ( i think we were figuring this out simultaneously.
thanks a lot jim ), it looks it does have something to do with the
fact that it's a zoo object because below i consider two cases.
in the first case, fxdatab is a zoo object and i get the length of temp
to be 1.
in the second case, fxdatac is a matrix and the results in temp are
correct.
gabor : i really hate to bother you because i already do WAY too much so
if
unclass as jim figured out and then as.zooing afterwards with the
original index is what you suggest, that's fine with me.
