A woman's place

Muppet pride
Richard Longland, a nuclear physicist at North Carolina State University, and his wife Julie Miranda Longland, an entomologist who works for an agricultural company in North Carolina, dressed up as Beaker and Bunsen.
"I have a more a more immediate reason — the selfish reason [for marching] is I get funding from the Department of Energy, which is now headed by Rick Perry, who didn’t even know what the Department of Energy was, which is a little unfair of me to pick on Rick Perry but he's a sign of a bigger problem, putting people in charge of things that have no respect for them, that want to dismantle them," Richard Longland told Live Science.
"I'm marching to show people the importance of science; people will see all these people here who support science. I'm not trying to change people's minds with it." Longland said. "I think it’s exciting that people from different scientific backgrounds can get together and support each other," he added.
