Thank you for putting together the wonderful tutorials. I work with the Red Cross on recovery efforts for areas affected by Typhoon Haiyan. We use R for all of our data processing and analysis and your videos have been instrumental in helping teach R to staff and volunteers with limited programming background. Thanks again for all of your hard work and diligence.
