I am taping Kent's lectures, so let me know if you want to borrow any of the tapes. Being audiotapes they are obviously of limited value since you won't know what he was writing on the board. But if you have to miss a lecture, listening to the tape as you read over the notes posted on the web site will help you understand the notes, I think. My tapes will go back only about the last 5 lectures before I need to recycle them, so don't wait too long to let me know if you want to borrow one.

And speaking of notes posted on the web site, I really encourage you to read them before lecture. Yeah, yeah, I know you've heard that in every course you've ever taken, but I think his lectures really will be easier to follow if you've familiarized yourself with the material beforehand.
