Hi Steve,
What do you mean by "cross-post between mailing list" ? I usually mail to both Bioconductor and R to avoid the suggestion to email the 'correct' place. More so since i was not sure who would be better able to answer my question.

Adjusted p-values are pretty bad - 0.999540865122392

What are the adjusted p-values for these genes?
