Hi,
We are getting 100 $ from Revolution Analytics. Also more t-shirts, etc. We should discuss how to use the money. They suggest signing up for meetup.com, but it's actually 12$ a month. I'd personally be in favor of keeping R group free. Maybe we could just get some food sometime.
Also, anyone have anything they'd like to share next meeting (December 3rd)? We could do a few shorter talks if a few people have a little something to show. I could show a little bit from the tm (text mining) package.

I have difficulty with Saturday meetings, but I should be able to attend
in December. I have a page about inserting a sequence of variable names
into a model
--> http://www.pmean.com/10/NamesIntoModel.html
that I could talk about if you like. I need to expand the page a bit but
the general concept is that if you need to create a series of models
inside a loop, it is tricky to do so. You have to convert string vectors
into object lists or formulas and the functions to do this are rather
bizarre.

Sounds good to me, Steve.
Anyone else have a short show and tell topic? Let's do lightning talks. I'd like to get a few more people lined up. Anything you found useful lately, or a package you always wanted to try?
I have quite a few R monkeys (and t-shirts and stickers) now.
Bob says we can use a conference room at UMKC, so I'll be sending out more information on that later.

Hi Everyone,
The next KC R user group meeting is 2 weeks from tomorrow... Saturday,
December 3rd at 2pm.
We're going to try having it in a conference room on the second floor
of Cherry Hall at UMKC (5030 Cherry St Kansas City, MO). Parking is
available just behind the Administration building off of Oak. Here's a
google map.

(Thanks, Bob!)
So far we have two people signed up to present a short topic:
Me on the text mining package
Steve on creating models inside a loop
I think it would be fun to get a few more people to show a little
something.
Happy Thanksgiving!

to Kansas City R Users Group, Prue, Robert E.
R user group this saturday! Second floor of Cherry Hall at UMKC at 2pm (Can we get a room number, Bob?). There is a projector. Free parking is available behind the administrative center on oak (5115 oak).
I will talk about text mining using the tm package and Steve will talk about creating models within a loop. And anybody else can feel free to bring along anything interesting they've come across.
I'll bring my big box of R monkeys and t-shirts (stocking stuffers?) and some R cookies.
