interactions and then assessing if interaction term is significant...
any more ideas?
Please don't suggest such a thing unless you do simulations to back up
its predictive performance, type I error properties, and the impact of
collinearities. You'll find this approach works as well as the U.S.
economy.

It is very hard to start modeling with such a huge dataset. What would
be your suggestion. How to make a first cut... how to eliminate most
of the variables but not to ignore potential interactions... for
example, maybe variable A is not good predictor and variable B is not
good predictor either, but maybe A and B together are good
predictor...
Any suggestion is welcomed
