Yes!  Indeed!  And, Thanks!  

And... I don't even need to remember to eval the setq statement if I include in my org the following works everytime

# Local Variables:
# org-babel-R-command: "R-3.0.1 --slave --no-save"
# End:

Or put it as first line in the file:

# -*- org-babel-R-command: "R-3.0.1 --slave --no-save"-*-

Cheers,

Malcolm
