[R] GAM with Thin plate splines

[Simon Wood]

The default basis for smooth terms in mgcv is a truncated thin plate
spline basis, and has been since the later part of 2001. Including terms
like `s(x,z)', `s(x0,x1,x2)' in the model formula is the way to include
such terms (see help files, and examples therin). 
best, Simon
