Right- I think the issue is getting a text() command (which does accept
srt) to work outside the plot region, and in the margin where I need it
to appear. This is easy to "hack" in a single plot, but not so clear how
to do it in a multi-panel environment with an outer margin.
I suspect going to grid() is where I'm going to have to go (after
reading the relevant chapters in Paul Murrell's book....)

Is that even possible? I'm having a difficult time imagining how I
can do this.
The `text` function accepts the 'xpd' argument for `par`.
?par
?text

rotated axis labels?")
I'm not sure what sort of "dirt" Uwe was expecting, but I'm guessing
he meant that you probably were not going to be getting exactly what
you wanted with the first attempt and were going to need to adjust the
locations "by hand" after digging around in the par documentation.
