Thanks, Jason. I am definitely one who find your recommendations helpful. I would not have known about The Linux Command Line had you not mentioned it on the Orca list some time ago. I have been reading through it, and it is probably one of the best introductory books which I have ever read, and it has some advanced materials in it as well. I have definitely learned more from it than I have from any other college-recommended Linux textbook. Thanks for sharing.
