Knowledge is Protection

Very interesting message from Russia, St.Petersburg:

I know about Lithuania that it was a part of USSR and a lot of people spoke Russian here. How situation is now? And I' ve just read that 35% of Lithuanians feel happy. Are you in that group?

So, are you?

3. It's not so far away ;)
