Every scientist would like to be able to move through research faster, to spend less time and money acquiring material or disseminating it.

Knowledge is a public good and increases in value as the number of people possessing it increases.

The opposite of ‘open’ isn’t closed. The opposite of open is broken.

If a scientist is reading a paper online and clicks through to purchase material, there's value there. It might be a business model it might be enough to defray the cost of open access. I just want to create the infrastructure that makes movement and sharing easier.
