Thanks very much for the pointer.  I agree that is aimed at the problem I see.

 This is an out-of-the-usual document. It is Sweave'd through R to
 generate the graphic and the regression output, and I don't expect
 most people will want to bother to try to compile it. Nevertheless, I
 uploaded the LyX file, in case you want to look it over.

 http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/weirdRotations-lyx.tar.gz

 I'm not sure that this is the file that you intended to link to, since
 it has little to do with the PDF above.


Dammit.  My copy/paste skills are getting worse and worse.  Here's the
correct link to the suspicious file:

Liviu's pointer led me off into a search through a lot of pages about
horizontal alignment of latex graphics.

The simplest workaround I've found so far is to wrap the troublesome
graphic,  table or minipage in
\raisebox{10mm}{   graphic or table  }

That lifts up the troublesome thing 10mm.  If you want to lower the
thing, put a negative number.  Here are the new versions, where I've
tested this both with simple side-by-side minipages (not in table
cells) and minipages or tables inside cells. Either way, you can
manually force things into line

http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/test2-part2-new.pdf
http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/test2-part2-new.lyx

This is not entirely satisfactory, we wish it were automatic.

One of the solutions mentioned in the thread is to add '\\' in front
