Hi, 
 In case any of you missed it (and it was tiny), we made Science
 magazine (this week's issue),


 TOOLS: Open-Source Stats

    Researchers from epidemiologists to atmospheric chemists rely on a
    statistics program called S-PLUS to crunch their data. The
    2-year-old R project has developed an open-source version of this
    workhorse package. The free software's capabilities range from
    nonlinear modeling to time-series analysis and include many
    graphing options. Contributors include John Chambers, who led the
    Bell Labs group that wrote the S language in the 1970s.
