[R-lang] Odd summary(aov()) result

I wonder if somebody could comment on why I get different summaries
with these two commands, which differ only in the order of the
variables.
summary(aov(MidAvg ~ Ccon*Rpres + Error(Subject/Ccon*Rpres),data=nr))
summary(aov(MidAvg ~ Rpres*Ccon + Error(Subject/Ccon*Rpres),data=nr))
With the first command, R doesn't report the main effect of Rpres.
With the second command, it does (code & output below). It's not very
important since the interaction is significant; I'm just surprised
that commutativity doesn't hold.
Thanks,
Adam
