I don't know if anyone here ever watched Norman Wildberger's YouTube channel,
but he's really relaxed, and does a great job of explaining some interesting
topics.

There's also a very exciting development in mathematics:
He also just came up with a way to solve for the roots of polynomials of any
power, so the quintic and beyond are no longer out of reach.

W. F. Pokorny, Cousin Ricky, TOK, and others may be interested in looking over
this work, watching the videos, and playing with the number series and geometric
diagrams.
