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....)
If you are going that route you may want to look at the gridBase
package.

Any thoughts on what that dirty hack might be or any leads on
where to start? Perhaps a whole new plot region in the margin or
something? 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.
