Hello, As you can see from my signature in this message, I use the R fortune function to generate a fortune, which is then fed to the signature program, which constructs a named pipe containing the fortune-bearing sig, which is then included in mail messages. The problem is that it's got extraneous junk in it and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. This is the command that generates

Dear R users, I would like to announce a new package connectedness on CRAN. connectedness can be used to identify disconnected sets. It contains functions to find, plot and subset disconnected sets in a two-way classification without interaction. Please do not hesitate to contact me, if you find a bug (possibly with a patch) or you have any comments. -- Lep pozdrav / With regards, Gregor

Hello! I have uploaded update (0.2-1) for connectedness. NEWS? o NA's in either x or y are not removed by default, but only when drop=TRUE. Subset method gains dropNA=NULL argument due to this. Now subset arguments are properly placed after '...'. 2006-08-08 o Added unit tests. 2006-08-08 o Removed connectedness.package.Rd as it is not really needed here. 2006-08-08 o LGPL

Folks: I thought John Nash's comment below was profound and a possible Fortunes candidate: (Aside: I believe it applies to a great deal of what is discussed on this list, not just stochastic optimization.)

Hi, there is a quote in the fortunes package: To paraphrase provocatively, `machine learning is statistics minus any checking of models and assumptions'. -- Brian D. Ripley (about the difference between machine learning and statistics) useR! 2004, Vienna (May 2004) Was this statement made in a presentation? If so, would it be possible to get a reference for the presentation?

Have you installed the fortunes package? From within R you can go install.packages("fortunes") If you have already installed it then there is something deeper going on.

Dear useRs, I used the summer months to work on all of my packages, and so this is the first of a sequence of announcements of "new" or updated packages. The "new" packages are new in the sense that previous versions had been on CRAN for some months but hadn't been announced to the R community via this list until now. All packages are available from the CRAN master site

I've started a "tribe" for discussing R and sharing scripts. Tribe.net is one of the popular on-line social communities, like "Friendster". Visit and see if it is a forum that you find useful. To join the "tribe" you will need to register with Tribe.net. I hope it will be of help to newbies, although I'm new to R myself. Here is the url:

This might have been discussed before, but below is a "not-so-unlikely" use case where the user follows normal procedures, updates R to a major release version, and then R crashes: 1. Use runs R stable (e.g. v2.13.0). 2. User installs a package with a namespace, e.g. install.packages("fortunes"). 3. User uses the package and one of the package's objects are assigned to the
