[R] cbind question, please

I am amazed at the number of rather obtuse misunderstandings of the 
actual nature of Erin's question.

The suggestion that Erin should read the intro to R made me smile.  Erin 
is a long time and highly sophisticated user of R; she has no need to 
read the intro.  The person who made that suggestion should have read 
her question more thoughtfully.

Also I liked Steve Taylor's and Marc Swartz's nifty solutions that use 
sapply(); much sexier than my rather kludgy effort using do.call(). 
Berwin Turlach's combination of do.call() and sapply() is pretty sexy too.

cheers,

Rolf Turner
