Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day

This is apparently today! Due to my whole fleeing the area for Distant Worlds this weekend I won't be able to have my weekly meeting with my interns (sadness) but I figured I'd make a post in lieu of talking with high school girls about engineering (which is a crap substitute I know).

If you want something broader, check out this lovely comic.
