I have an array (I am using T/F rather than TRUE/FALSE for convenience) that 
could have patterns like:
        c(T, T, T, F, F, F, T, F, T, T, T)              ## T at either end, a 
single T in the middle
        c(F, F, F, F, F, T, F, F, T, T, T)              ## T at the tail end, a 
single T in the middle
        c(T, T, T, F, F, T, T, F, F, F, F)              ## T at the front end, 
two T in the middle
        c(T, T, T, F, F, T, T, F, T, F, F)              ## T at the front end, 
three T in the middle (not contiguous)
        c(F, F, F, F, F, T, F, F, F, F, F)              ## no T at either end, 
a single T in the middle
There might (or might not) be one or more T at the beginning (or the end).
There might or might not be one or more T in the middle (not in a series that 
continues to either end) and the position of these T values varies.

I am trying to identify the indices (if any) of these T values in the middle
A brute force approach would be to strip off any contiguous T values from each 
end, then look for any remaining T values.  Can anyone propose a more clever 
approach?
