R help - Mar 2008 - y label perpendicular to the y axis

Hi R-users:
   
  We need to place the y label horizontally on a plot. 
   
  Instead of

  l  |
  a |
  b |
  e |
  l  |
    |__________
   
  we want
           |
           |
   label |
           |
           |
           |______________
   
  We thank you any advice.
   
  Yours,

plot(rnorm(100), ylab="")
mtext(side=2, text="Label", las=1, line=2)
