My site is Sciencemadness. The forum is the most active part of the site: https://www.sciencemadness.org/whisper/ Check out the library too (this started before Google Books, Internet Archive, and Hathitrust were…
You can find it here, minus the posts from the private forums: https://the-hive.archive.erowid.org/ also see https://archive.erowid.org/
The bad actors were much less prevalent back in the heyday of small phpBB style forums. I have run a forum of this type for 20 years now, since 2002. Around 2011 was when link spam got bad enough that I had to start…
Not in the United States. I run a web site that publishes information about the making of explosives, chemical weapons, and even restricted nuclear materials. It's all perfectly legal. Most of the information comes from…
The OCR text beneath the page image is there to make it easier to search. I used ABBYY FineReader for the OCR process. I didn't do any manual reviewing or correcting of the automatically generated OCR text. I ran…
Wow, time flies. I scanned this book more than 12 years ago. Here's my original announcement on the Sciencemadness forum: https://www.sciencemadness.org/whisper/viewthread.php?tid=24... I'm glad that it was so…
I didn't realize that one was rare and expensive! I have it sitting on my shelf next to the 1965 Model Rocketry manual from Estes Industries. But it looks like archive.org already has a scan, so I don't need to scan it…

My site is sciencemadness.org. I started it when I was still an undergraduate some 20 years ago now (!). It's mostly about chemistry and nuclear technology. My personal interests include chemistry, nuclear power,…
When I was a kid in the 1980s it didn't seem harder than my other hobby, programming a Commodore 64. The relative difficulty is probably higher now, and of course your friends/neighbors/postal carrier may be more…
I found it funny too, hence my "lateral move" comment :-)
It appears that new accounts can't edit comments. Here is the Mullis Nobel lecture mentioning Max Gergel that I meant to link in footnote 2: http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/1993/...
It's always a pleasure to see Sciencemadness linked here. The link is usually to this book, and with good reason. It's a classic. You don't have to be a chemist to enjoy it (though that helps). I have a main account…
