We strongly prefer that you register using your CMU email, but in any case you must not register with an address at hotmail.com, live.com, gmail.com, yahoo.com, aol.com, earthlink.net, as email from these domains will be filtered out by the host.

A few things to note:

• You will be subscribed to receive email notification about new posts, comments, etc.
• You can ask questions by leaving a comment on a post.  If you’re apprehensive about asking questions in public, feel free to register under a pseudonym.
• Otherwise, please associate a picture to your profile by registering your email address at Gravatar.com—doing so will help us better recognize you in class!
• You can include mathematical notation in your questions using standard $\LaTeX$ syntax.  For instance, when enclosed in a pair of dollar signs, an expression like \int_M K dA = 2\pi\chi gets typeset as $\int_M K dA = 2\pi\chi$.
