There are only 78 shared between the two outputs.  kOverA(2,7) produces
361 genes, kOverA(2,6) produces 121 genes.  This seems like a major
problem that I encountered in a completely different script, which was
not mine so I just scrapped using it.  

There are no apparent similarities between the genes being included in
both output sets.  Is there another function I can use that will do the
same filtering but may be more reliable?

Hi,
  That behavior seems somewhat unusual.
Could you perhaps see which genes are selected for
kOverA(2,7) and which for kOverA(2,6)?  And then look at the expression 
values to see what might be going on..

Also please include the output of sessionInfo, as requested in the 
posting guide.
