When you think scientist, you probably don't picture a blond woman with a sleeve of tattoos, who lifts weights, surfs, skates, and writes and illustrates clever, quirky books about science. But Leah Elson, author of "There are No Stupid Questions in Science," is exactly that person. We talk about what it's like to be a "fringe scientists," how science shapes her worldview, and the passion she brings to making it accessible to the rest of us.
