Dear R-help,

I am sorry if this is more of a stats question than an R-question, but I have 
found it difficult to get a clear answer by other means.

Q. Would it be "wrong" to specify a nested model and retain a common intercept, 
e.g.

lm(NH4 ~ Site/TideCode + 1)

I am aware (?) that my Site-coefficients are now calculated relative to my 
reference Site  (treatment.contrasts), *but* that my TideCode levels now relate 
to their reference level within Site.

Is that correct?

Thank you in advance for help.

Regards,
Mark Difford.
