Hello,

1. There's a function anova(), which you have forgot to use.

 > model <- lm(d~pos*site, data=x)
 > anova(model)
Analysis of Variance Table

Response: d
           Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value   Pr(>F)
pos        1   0.05   0.050  0.0026 0.960045
site       4 636.50 159.125  8.3971 0.003084 **
pos:site   4  59.70  14.925  0.7876 0.558857
Residuals 10 189.50  18.950
---
Signif. codes:  0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1

The waffer position and it's interaction with site are not significant.

2. There is also a function aov(), similar to lm() but with a slightly 
different use.

 > model.aov <- aov(d~pos*site, data=x)
 > summary(model.aov)
             Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value  Pr(>F)
pos          1    0.0    0.05   0.003 0.96005
site         4  636.5  159.13   8.397 0.00308 **
pos:site     4   59.7   14.93   0.788 0.55886
Residuals   10  189.5   18.95
---
Signif. codes:  0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1

The only difference is in the decimals displayed.

3. Back to lm(), you can use confint() to see if the estimates' 95% 
confidence intervals include zero.
If so, they're statiscally insignificant.

 > confint(model)
                   2.5 %      97.5 %
(Intercept) 1371.141457 1384.858543
posR          -5.199444   14.199444
site2          1.800556   21.199444
site3          2.300556   21.699444
site4          7.300556   26.699444
site5         -8.699444   10.699444
posR:site2   -17.717086    9.717086
posR:site3   -24.217086    3.217086
posR:site4   -19.217086    8.217086
posR:site5   -16.717086   10.717086

And the interpretation is the same.

Hope this helps,
