The R movement is picking up steam in the center of America. People that ignored my R-enthusiasm 10 years ago are now calling me up asking for presentations. I need to make a 2 hour presentation to a collection of faculty and grad students who might like to use R. I don't want to make it seem too complicated (as I often do), but I don't want to mislead them to think it will be easy. I expect other r-help readers have been in this same situation. I have a recollection (5, 6 years ago) that one of the R leaders had a slideshow for this exact purpose. But I can't find it now. There is a R-help similar request and both John Fox and Deepayan Sarkar offered links to their materials. However, the links aren't valid anymore. If I don't find a pre-existing example to work from, I'll slap together a Beamer/Sweave presentation and post it where future speech givers can get it. -- Paul E.

Dear Paul, There are links to materials from two R courses that I taught fairly recent on my home page at <http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox/>, and I always keep links to course materials there.
