The history of my appearance and disappearance is quite long,
therefore, I could be mistaken by several billion years :):
The year -13 700 million.
The big “explosion” of the space occurred (I am not able to tell exactly what happened,
but scientis say that facts indicate such sequence of events).
The year -4 600 million.
The Solar system has formed (Age of the Earth), i.e. got the appearance we see today.
But it was still not suitable for life.
The year -3 200 million.
First alive cells occurred.
The year -600 million.
The first life occurred (my first ancestors).
The year -420 million.
My first ancestors put their feet on the land.
1974-03-23 – 1974-12-23
I appeared approximately at this time as a result of merger of DNR chains. Certainly,
my IQ at that time was 0, therefore, it is probably not fair to consider myself
being alive by that time. Having added 8,79X10-42 of mass of our Galaxy (Milky Way)
within the period of 9 months I started breathing independently. Since then my official
birthday happens every 365 days 5 hours 48 minutes and 45.9747 seconds (the period
of rotation of the Earth around the Sun).

The year 10 000 million.
At that time I will be probably gone and the atoms I consist of
will probably be the component of somebody else. At that time the Sun will run out
of fuel. And this fact will have much stronger effects that the growth of fuel prices
in the Earth. So the Sun will detach and roast all the residents of the Earth. We’ll
end in the middle of the Sun, and the most resistant will be able to admire nuclear
reactions without leaving home. Later the Sun will turn into the Black dwarf, spun
around by the dead planets’ beads.
Our task seems to be clear already – to shift into the new system
within 10 billion years. This is what I would like to wish you.
Why should I hide away like some laurel leaf. So there’s some
more explicit information about me :)
Personal features: Sense of humor mixed with a slight portion of cynicism
is not alien to me. After all, humor separates humans from
animals. :)
Languages: Lithuanian (Native), Russian (Fluent), English (Intermediate).
Hobbies: include computers, Internet, software. Discussions on religions
and the areas in which "other" worlds are contacted :). I am very grateful to people
who value craziness of others, but do not hinder development of free personality.
I agree with Chinese philosopher Confucius²
who said: "Choose a job you love and you will never work a day in your life."
Marital status: Single Lithuanian (Baltic States,
Europe).
Habits: don't smoke, don't use beer, a mess
at home (similar like after the big “explosion” of space).
Outlook: I am a layman, or atheist, as others call such
like me. I do not believe in destiny, nor in star signs either. When the black cat
runs across my way – I don’t care. Real world is fascinating enough, unfortunately
not everybody notices that. I value most: a) intellect b) knowledge c) freedom.
As far as life is concerned it is the house for all these values. The value of the
life itself depends of the level of intellect and quantity of knowledge accumulated
in it.
Dislikes: I do not like doing things I don’t like, therefore,
most often I refuse immediately. I do not like people who criticize me without having
created by themselves anything in any of the areas. I don’t like average personalities
who do not value other people’s ideas or are panic afraid to do anything so look
non-serious.
Entertainment: Science fiction and everything that causes
admiration in the cinema. Even though science fiction is boring already, because
it is so difficult to find anything new, and the word “Science” is attached to stories
that have nothing to do with science (unless this is science about bugs :). On the
other hand, it is more and more difficult to find anything new around. The world
could change even faster.
Revolutions: for the nation’s sake I love revolutions.
Like the pacifist “For conversion of mandatory military service to smaller professional
one (what the President of Lithuania Valdas Adamkus promised doing during his election
campaign, but probably forgot)”, which was at the site http://www.neprievolei.lt/,
which was the reason to spend 5 days behind bars. Since I am not able to sit quiet
on one spot, I always make something original, e.g. http://www.satan.lt/ - non-traditional
site about traditional religion, where you can leave your own opinion.
Lithuania: I think that the man is firstly the resident
of the Earth, therefore he has the right to offer his works and possibilities to
the people of the entire World. The man and his freedoms are above everything. Therefore,
I would like to live in the country, which values my works most.
