My high school age daughter is interested in science, so I hope it will be easier for her. Kudos to all participating in this effort.

This is clearly an important issue. In this context I was a little chagrined to see Eric Michael Johnson's post on coercion taken down. I suspect the reasons are clear and saddening. Good luck!
