\begin{abstract}
Hi reddit! Misunderstood or ``silly sounding'' research is often much
more than it seems. We are interested in creative ways to explain the
value of esoteric work in the face of public or political scrutiny. We
are always looking to help scientists who work in controversial, odd, or
obscure areas of research. Ask us anything about the kind of research we
try to highlight, the scientists we try to support, and how
``silly-sounding'' science can lead to societal benefits. We (David
Scholnik of Pacific University, Patricia Brennan of Mount Holyoke
College, and Brian Baird, former United States Representative from
Washington) are looking forward to answering your questions about the
ways that individual scientists, their institutions, and the scientific
community at large can work together to speak up for science, such as
the Golden Goose Award, which recognizes silly, odd, or obscure-sounding
research that has returned serious benefits to society. Patricia Brennan
tweets as @sexinnature. Check out my research in the XX files at
Science: My science is basic science We'll be back at 1 pm to answer
your questions! Ask us anything!%
