    Not me! My sister teaches History and German in high school. I'm the only scientist in my family. It surprised everyone!

    Hi Linda,

    I am the only scientist in my family. However, I think that being around a scientist has given my friends and relatives a greater appreciation for science shows on TV and even that comedy show "Big Bang Theory." They think it is really funny when the guys on "Big Bang Theory" have scientific disagreements or fight over who gets to be co-authors on a paper because these things sound an awful lot like my job!
