        But why does this happen on *my* system, and not on Chuck's???

Because I goofed by rerunning ALL the lines in .Rprofile rather than just the last two.
When I run just the last two, I get the behavior you describe.

        Well, that's a relief.  It's nice to know that the paranoids aren't
        really after me! :-)

Sorry for the misdirection.

        'Sa'right.  I've committed more egregious sins myself.

BTW, the workaround that I've found is to run R with the --no- restore-data flag and then explicitly load .RData in my .Rprofile *before* I do the reading in of
        .Random.seed.

Of course if I were to run R without the --no-restore-data flag, then .RData would get loaded twice; once from explicit load in .Rprofile, and once from
        what the ``system'' does.  But that only wastes a few electrons.

                cheers,

                        Rolf
