Berry,
  It sounds like you just need a little helper function like this:

ser <- function(x, len=100, f=0.1) {
   dr <- extendrange(x, f=f)
   return(seq(dr[1L], dr[2L], length.out=len))
 }

I called it ser, short for sequence extended range. Use it thusly:

Ijustneed <- ser(D_orig)

  Hope this helps. I use and create little help functions like this all the
time. Even extendrange could be considered a helper function as it is only
a couple of lines long.
Dave
