[R] Want to draw 3D cylinder objects

[Greg Snow]

Can you give a little more detail?

Do you want the nice 3d shading effect? Or is an ellipse, 2 lines and another ellipse good enough?  Does the viewing angle matter (flatness of ellipses).  Do the cylinders need to be placed at certain locations? Or are you trying to do a barplot with 3d cylinders instead of bars? (please, please, please say no to that last one)
