I find myself loading the TeachingDemos package most often, though in my case there may be one of those chicken/egg things going on.
I also use MASS and rms quite a bit (if we are limited to 3, but I also use survival, Hmisc, and splines, but they are loaded with rms). The package that I really want a copy of is the esp package. This would allow the computer to do the analysis that I want without me actually having to give it the details, allow me to do the analysis that my client actually wants without wasting time by first doing the analysis that they told me they want, and answer questions from posters who do not give any of the details asked for in the posting guide. I also want a package that when people misuse certain functions/techniques it will cause a small door on the side of their monitor/computer to open and a mechanical hand will come out and slap them upside the head. But that package will not be useful until the hardware support is available. -- Gregory (Greg) L.
