Site maintenance

The site is undergoing maintenance and may not show up properly on your browser. Please be patient 

Trying to climb back into the saddle

I have painfully put up a tiny addition as a proof of concept, both for my energy levels and trying to get my new computer up to speed. Please be patient.

Winchell Chung is still alive!

But I've been hospitalized for the last month or so, and just got out today. More details later.

Atomic Rockets moving to new server

The old server was at prismnet.com, which is going out of business. There may be intermittent access problems until things settle down. Hopefully things will be unchanged, you should be able to access the site at

Status Report

The Atomic Rocket website is back up!

Status Report

For as yet unknown reasons the website appears to be down. I am taking steps to rectify the situation.

Status Report

Oncologist says my cancer is in remission. PSA levels dropped from 200 to 0.5.  I will be on testosterone blockers for the foreseeable future.  At some point the cancer will come back. Doctor mentioned that some patients live for up to 6 more years.

Auxiliary website will be worked on in the background, as insurance if I suddenly take a turn for the worse.

I will try to start making website updates, but it will take time for me to recover enough to do so. I will keep you...

Memorandum Document

For what it is worth, Ken Burnside has set up a document for people to sign with their thoughts of the website

Patron Notice for 9/3/2021
