More AlphaGo effect: "My uncle teaches math at Colorado Mesa University and asked me to give a presentation about go and AlphaGo," writes Sirocco Fury Hamada. "Dr. Edward Bonan-Hamada’s mathematical modeling class at Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, CO is interested in mathematically modeling human reasoning. He asked me to teach his students about go so they could understand it and think about the math behind AlphaGo. It was a small class, just seven students, but they asked great questions and are very interested in go now. A lot of them expressed interest in wanting to learn more about it and playing it online or with each other. AlphaGo is creating interest in go in unusual (or not) places!"
Go classifieds work: "The classified ad you ran for me (books, semiprecious stones, and kaya bowls for sale) was an unqualified success," writes Donald Garratt. "All the items have been sold! Thank you. I will contact you in the future when I am ready to sell some more go equipment."
