[R] barplot: invalid 'xlim' value

[Joshua Wiley]

Okay, after I got your data in, your issue seems to be with barplots
call to plot.window.  In particular, plot.window requires xlim and
ylim to be numeric vectors (see ?plot.window).  In your data
> str(xlim)
POSIXlt[1:2], format: "2000-06-12 02:00:00" "2000-07-17 01:00:00"

Perhaps someone more familiar with POSIX can explain how to make it
amenable to plot.window.  I tried converting it to numeric, but with
poor results.  In the source code for the graphic you referenced, xlim
is numeric.
