Jon and Spencer,
First of all, thanks for your insightful comments on my questions. I am
quite impressed by the level of support one finds in the r-help mailing
list. In particular, as Spencer pointed out in another post, I did not
do my homework and you have been overly kind in discussing the issue. I
promised Spencer privately that I will read the Posting Guide before
getting farther in the thread, but I would like just to give a short
answer:

Yes, I intend to do the test across subjects and subject variance is
indeed an issue in my case.
Thanks for your further suggestions, I will look at them carefully.
