I just had a look at the first thread and this looks like an excellent project. I won't be following along since I did maths as an undergrad and am now doing a phd, but I'd be happy to lend an experienced hand if anyone is having trouble. I'm not sure what is the best format to offer my help, so please reply if I can be of assistance in some way. I've done some tutoring of similar subjects before.

Cool. Want to be our TA? :)

I think the best format to offer help would just be to post comments here. Explanations of subtleties, additional insights, suggestions for further thinking, reminiscences of your own encounters with the material, or mentions of how this stuff comes in handy in other contexts would all be of interest. And it would help the discussion flow more. One lesson from the first thread might be that we were holding back a bit too much.
