[R] boot problem

[Angelo Canty]

What are you trying to do?  boot does the resampling for you so you should 
pass the statistic that you want calculated on the resamples.  Read the 
helpfile regarding the format of the statistic.  It should take two 
arguments, one of which is a vector of indices specifying the resample.
