Now, if they can make D12, D10, D8, D6, and D4 robots, I'll never fail another critical roll again!

I just picked up "The Code Book" recently and really enjoyed it. Another one I think would be pretty cool for high school math students is "Professor Stewart's Cabinet of Mathematical Curiosities", by Ian Stewart. It's written in a very light style, and would probably make learning about math seem like more fun to those that have an aversion.

I wondered for a long time if there was a term for this sort of noun. I don't remember how I discovered it, but the type of noun you're describing is called a mass noun. Its opposite is called a count noun. I'm not correcting you or anything, just passing along some info.
