In general OT is OK if it relates to R, but why should we forgive you
for posting to three R lists at once! This would seem to be OT for
R-Devel and so far OT for R-Packages it makes me wonder if you aren't on

Please be considerate when deciding to whom you address these emails. At
best this is something for R-Help and should be clearly marked OT in the
subject line.
