Lithuania is already member of the European Union, but I have the feeling that they don't realize it. The country is in all her aspects is still inside and only few institutions are interested in what is going on in science and education in the other European countries and world-wide. Seems to take time before this little countries, that have suffered under the Sowjet period, comes a more open and active countries and have the feelings to be part from world.

Allow me to share a parable, while in an ever so slightly different context, it speaks to the benefit of Scientific Communication. ‘When Dave first asked me for help, I suggest to people that asking me for help is a bad decision if they expect to fail, he had a $250.00/Day Meth habit. I introduced him to the Zome tool and hooked him up to my network. In time he became interested in High Energy Physics and devoured everything available from the folks at SLAC, Fermilab, and CERN. He the discovered arXiv and more recently Eprintweb at Cornell and read every dispatch, sometime sent running to our data miner to find out more on topics he could not grasp. ‘He discovered he could Email the authors of the reports and started asking questions about things he could not understand. A sort of Adhoc support group formed around the question he asked because he had asked questions they had not thought of. This relationship as grown to the point that ‘Dave’ has been invited to the first firing of the LHC next Spring at CERN. All this from a young man who I was told by the local Judicial authorities was a dead loss.’ Our Bias Is, As always, Declared at [http://redsevenone.wordpress.com] The question is, Are Sciences Blogs Needed?
