Glenn from Hamilton LUG did this presentation for KWLUG in December
2006.  We don't have his materials on the web site.

And from a quick look in my command history I use these a lot:

pwgen - I need a password for an online thing
locate - Where did I put that file?
man - How many options are there for grep?
sudo - No, really, do what I said.
