When I was 14 I would have loved to talk to a real scientist. I loved science and technology but my educational access to any sort of professional was extremely limited. One of my most memorable High School teachers taught Chemistry. But during the summers he did real research. He was passionate both about Chemistry and teaching. He touched a lot of lives for the better. Many of his students went on to study in the sciences in college and beyond.

There are a lot of bright inquisitive 14-year-olds out there who could really benefit from access to "real scientists". If you have any inclination towards teaching you might even get something out of it yourself!
