This isn't the typical r-help post, but I think people here will appreciate
it. The current Shirt.Woot (http://shirt.woot.com) derby prompt is fake band
names, so I chose the name "The Probable Error of a Mean." And I made my
submission with R. Here it is:

I'm quite surprised and disappointed by how few people understand it. It's
probably not going to win, but I'll print a few fake band propaganda
materials and confuse/enlighten people.

This is also making me wonder what more artistic works are created using R.
There is some degree of art in the creation of plots, but I'm thinking about
things whose purpose is not to convey quantitative information in such a
strict sense. I suspect that there's a better language/program for most
non-plot curves, but are there any thoughts on this?
