A Girl Wrote Her Dad an Adorable Note on How to Behave Around Bill Nye

Fourteen years ago, Laura Dyson’s Dad George Dyson got a chance to meet our friend Bill Nye, and the nine-year-old was very concerned about him making a good impression. Luckily she wrote down some science and etiquette rules for her Dad to refer to.

Obviously Lauren’s advice worked, since Bill Nye signed her adorable list, right next to Lauren’s drawing of a pretty unimpressed-looking horse. 14 years later, Lauren says, “My Dad is still awesome AND his sartorial sense has improved.”

Good job, Lauren!
