The FRIAM

[Marko Rodriguez]

Hi all,

FRIAM should publish a book that contains chapters written by the  
most prolific of the FRIAM emailsters. I could envision an odd mix of  
science, science-fiction, and unadulterated speculation...

The book could then be published through:

http://www.lulu.com/

In which printing is driven by consumption. Furthermore, lulu.com  
automatically places the publication on Amazon.com.

I'd buy it,

If someone will do the work of selecting and editing the content, the IAJ
Press will handle the pre-press work and publish such a volume via
Lulu.comjust as we did with the Ver
1.0 Proceedings.  (See http://www.lulu.com/tom117)

Nice - I recently used Booksurge to publish a book, but the upfront
costs are a small disincentive (I haven't broke even yet, but I might
after a year of sales).

If I ever do a second edition, I might use Lulu to sell it.

If you interested in doing something on Friam discussions, I'll
volunteer to be an editor, but not "the Editor". I know how much work
is involved!
