Like the author, I probably use 'ls -ltr' more often than any other variation of ls. It's more useful to view most directories in date order (newest nearest to your cursor), although of course this probably won't be news to most GUI / Windows users.

Edit: A small shell script over my history proves my guess is correct:

    plain ls: 59
    ls -ltr: 8
    ll: 6
