A little bit of a plug for scientists

If you all haven't had the chance to see it, I recommend you check out this site:
http://lookslikescience.tumblr.com/. Its a blog that features pictures of what scientists really look like...and the fact that most of us are not the stereotyped "old, balding white-guy in a white lab-coat" image that most people conjecture when you say "scientist". There are some great photos of people who work in museums too, including this one:
And then there are just fun ones:
I submitted a photo of myself for the project too; if you're a scientist, you should apply and help us keep the movement going to show science is fun, varied, and something anyone can do if they love it :)
