I think that this might be the mail or some other system replacing 
commercial at by at. Better syntax might be:

minx <-  slot(rain_data_UTM, "bbox")[1,1]

if this was the real intention, as slot() is the preferred script-level S4 
slot accessor, although one finds lots of untidy examples using 
commercial at in blogs and elsewhere on the net. However, your version is 
obviously much easier to read:

And yes, this is very good advice!
