It's interesting that you posted this - I think I remember reading in O'Reilly's "Essential System Administration" that there are many people who go through all of the system-included binaries once or twice a year and if they don't know what a command does, read the manpage on it. I thought it was kind of an interesting concept - and you really would be surprised to see how many commands you've never even heard of.
