Instead of rowMeans(m[,groups == uGroups[gg], drop=FALSE]), I used 
apply(m[,groups == uGroups[gg], drop=FALSE], 1, mean), which really slow down 
the processing. I modified your codes slightly so that I can use sd, median, 
and mad also. Better and efficient approach ?> Date: Sun, 13 Jul 2008 18:21:24
