Too Dumb to Meter

Over the past nearly 40 years of writing about nuclear energy and nuclear power, I've come across many humerous and instructive items on U.S. nuclear history -- cases of attempts to develop nuclear energy technology that was just hopeless on its face, or made no economic sense, or demonstrated boneheadedness in the pursuit of the power of the atom.
I'm capturing those historical experiences in a book I'm writing, titled Too Dumb to Meter. Normally, I would pursue publishing this book through the normal channels, and I've had considerable commercial interest in the book. But the economics of publishing are so fraught with risk in these days of economic meltdown -- and it's a risk business in the best of times -- that publishers aren't willing to take on book authors with no track record. While I've been in daily, weekly, and monthly energy journalism since the 1960s, I don't have book publishing track record.
So I'm looking to publish the book myself, starting with this blog, and later, I hope, with a publishing company.
