Looks a bit weird because of the number of unique values in lt, but will
look OK with the data series you posted earlier.

Also, 

> plot(lt, type = "l")
> axis(4, at = pretty(range(lt)),line=0.75,tick=TRUE)

doesn't look right on my default device, do you really want to move the
axis away from the plot margin?
