John Miller: How do I prevent google search to post my questions asked here??
Martin Maechler: you don't: R-help is famous and celebrity can't be gotten rid off ;-)

You might also consider a more informative subject line. "Help needed" is true for all questions (not answers) on R-help. Just think, why is this list called R-***help***?

Shan-Ho Chou: I got a question about eigenvector. I've tried input a symmetric matrix to both R (using eigen function) and Minitab, but the result is really different. Can anyone tell me what's wrong with that?
Bill Venables: Simple. Minitab must be broken. Have you reported it to them?

All this becomes even more glaring if you take the unusal step of plotting the data.

Actually, I see it as part of my job to inflict R on people who are perfectly happy to have never heard of it. Happiness doesn't equal proficient and efficient. In some cases the proficiency of a person serves a greater good than their momentary happiness.

Bandwidth selection is an unresolved (and possibly unsolvable) problem in smoothing, so you're perfectly justified in trying/choosing an arbitrary value if it produces good pictures!

If we do that, I predict that the total amount of r-help time wasted on it will exceed the CPU time saved by orders of magnitude.

I think the amount of people on this list who understand your question is roughly zero.

R-help (January 2012) #Rstats

Just now I had an apparently insurmountable problem that's been bugging me for days, but phrasing my question in a form suitable for the R-help list enabled me to solve my own problem in two minutes flat.
Thanks everyone.
