   AARRGGHH!  Sometimes it's the simple things that are particularly frustrating, 
   especially late at night....

   Can anyone suggest a simple means for replacing all of the zero values in a 
   matrix with NANs?  I ended up writing an awk script to massage the input file, 
   which works, of course, but is rather an inelegant blunt instrument.  I'd 
   prefer an R operation.  I'm certain that I'm missing something obvious here....
