Melissa Marshall: Talk nerdy to me


TEDGlobal 2012
Melissa Marshall: Talk nerdy to me (script)
Summary
The speaker has a favor to ask of you who are scientists and engineers, please, talk nerdy to her and to many people. It is because they are tackling the world's grandest challenges which are energy, environment, health care and, etc. Then they, scientists  engineers and people,non-scientists have to communicate successfully to solve those problems.
Their science and engineering are great, sexy, and engaging though people probably don't understand them. It is because people are scared of them who look like they really has a good brain, big books and always  use unfamiliar words always. If they answer questions that is "so what?" more. If they don't use many technical terms, it means making everything as simple as possible, but no simpler. If they  provide more visuals to show something.
It leads to equal incredible interactions. Everyone wants to know and understand their passionate stories.
Words in this story
nerd / a foolish or contemptible person who lacks social skills or is boringly studious.
