My lawyers tell me I can't write or post about a cult I can no longer 
even name.  Considering the amount of trouble I got in thinking that 
free speech was a real right, you should not expect me to write about it.

If you or anyone else thinks there should be a book about it I can't 
do anything about it.

It's out, been out for months and can be found with Google.  So is 
the follow on of a way to use it that could be done by a reasonably 
competent street gang.

Professionals in the business have not found a hole in the idea 
either, or if they have they have not told me about it.  They are 
mostly surprised it was not used decades ago.  I think I know why, 
hot uranyl nitrate solution is very corrosive but it was used in 
homogenous reactors.

I was a good guy and kept those thoughts to myself for at least a 
decade.  You can thank law enforcement in two states for motivating 
me to share it.  It just chemistry and physics, no matter how dire 
the potential results.  You can't get in trouble for that like you 
can for trying to draw attention to two cases of "depraved 
indifference murder."

Nothing I write has enough commercial value to pay minimum wage.  I 
have that from multiple editors.
