Data Analysis with Stata Class; Wishes for a SPSS-to-Stata Guide

The class page for POL SCI 6 LEC 1: Introduction to Data Analysis at UCLA has a done of Stata data sets, tutorials and homeworks that I'm planning to work through "When I Have Some Spare Time" in my continuing, though depressingly slow, effort to free myself from the evil clutches of SPSS.

The Stata Crib Sheet (supposed to be a PDF, but saved with a "PDG" extension; you'll need to rename it on download) gives three pages of commonly used Stata commands. What I'd like to see is a "SPSS to Stata" crib sheet that has one column with common SPSS procedures, and in the other column tells you how to do them in Stata.
