[R] using xpath with xml2

Hi, I have mined XML extensively with R before now, but my xpath chops seem to be regressing recently. I know that I can roll up my sleeves and search through the child nodes of the root, but I can't noodle out why using the xpath description returns an empty nodeset. Any suggestions and nudge
