Yes, I was excited when I found this set of challenges.  It is of a
"correctly answer many questions in one or two hours" nature rather than
"hopefully answer one or two questions in many hours" level, at least at
the beginning.  It builds towards the tougher challenges in the last stage
but has some hints and links to learning resources as well.

If anyone has access to other groups with potentially interested people
please spread the announcement.  I'm thinking AssentWorks, MUUG, WPCUG,
past or future Canadian CDC entrants/teams/coaches, co-workers, etc. Thanks!
