There's also #math on freenode, but it's a scary wilderness.

This is fairly wildly off-topic but... does anybody know of a good forum
where I can ask questions about mathematics and get authoritative answers?
Apart from math.stackexchange.com and mathoverflow.net, which people
have already mentioned, people often discuss mathematics on
#haskell-blah on Freenode.
I know of several places where I can ask maths questions and half a
dozen people will take guesses at what the correct solution might be. I
haven't yet found anywhere where I can say "when would a chi-squared
test be more appropriate than a KS test?" and get an informed,
knowledgeable answer. (Answers from people who /know/ what they're
talking about rather than just /think/ they know.)
Anyway, from this thread I've got the names of a few places to start
looking. And that's really what I was hoping for. Thanks for the tips.
