[R] Variable shortlisting for the logistic regression

Frank's remark was made in response to my posting.  As "funny" as it was -
it was the best thing that could have happened to me.  It sparked an
enlightening discussion between my committee and me (in particular, the pros
& cons of stepwise vs. information theoretic approach to model selection).
Being new to the R help list, I had no idea who Frank was.  I googled him
(and asked around) and found very quickly that he should be taken seriously.
And so should his remark.
