I’ve always felt there are a lot of people out there who have a strong desire to know what’s going on in science, but maybe they’re intimidated, maybe they aren’t around other people who care about the same things. Maybe they don’t have a place to get information they trust. This site is about showing people that it is OK to be interested in science, that this is a positive thing. You shouldn’t be intimidated or scared or nervous. And if you don’t have friends who are interested in it, go online, where there are thousands of people who are interested in science.
Oh, hey this is a (very) short interview with me
