Newbies (and others!) may find the R Reference Card made available by  Tom
Short and Rpad at http://www.rpad.org/Rpad/Rpad-refcard.pdf  useful. It
categorizes and organizes a bunch of R's (S's) basic, most used functions so
that they can be easily found. For example, paste() is under the "Strings"
heading and expand.grid() is under "Data Creation." For newbies struggling
to find the right R function as well as veterans who can't quite remember
the function name, it's very handy.

There are two other reference cards, and all three are linked
from my R site (below).  [You might add these to your reminder
announcement.]
