title: R: How to extract dates from a time series
body: <p>How can I extract dates from a times series?
  Here is a time series:</p>
  
  <pre><code>x = seq (1, 768)
  myts &lt;- ts(x, start=1982, frequency=24)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Originally I needed to create a vector holding date/time data for the <code>rts</code> function, The observations start 1982 with 2 measurements per month going till 2013.</p>
