​Yes, now after naming the members of the Supreme Court, the Speaker of the
House, your reps in Congress, make a list of all the USA Nobel Prize
winners, who get a page 3 for one day and then forgotten.  Examine K-12
books for Nobel Prize winners.  Name a best seller written about a Nobel
Prize winner, name a song...................
and so on.

Andy Warhol was right about famous scientists.

I think people are a bit afraid of scientists.
