Quotes for the Microscope back cover

[osmose1000]

Alright, I've got the front cover for the Microscope book done, but I'm in need of quotes for the back, since there's nothing else I can think of to put there besides a summary.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, I've formatted Scott's wonderful book to be printed by http://www.lulu.com. I know I'm not the only one who thinks owning the first book to be published by Scott Alexander is nifty.

Anywho, at this point there's only three things I need:

1.Someone who can convert it to the proper PDF form. Dean's on this, whenever he gets to it, so this is done.

Speaking of which, if you see this, Greg, make sure that the PDF is set to embed fonts and not to embed them as subsets. And see if it'll allow you to convert it to PDF 1.3, or PDF's working with Acrobat 4.

2.The three images used at the bottom of the cover included with Microscope. The size of the printing image is really friggen' big, so I need the largest one's available. (To get an idea, the single front cover picture is 1913 x 2925)

3. Stuff for the back cover. I'ma get a summary from Scott and quotes from here.

So you need quotes from the book, or quotes of people raving about the book?

[UEC]

But they need to be noteable sources... At least in micronations. like someone speaking on behalf of a paper or such.

[Kaiseress Semisa I]

"An intelligible, in-depth history of the micronational world: who could ask for more?"

[UEC]

but it mostly covers the history of foreign affairs....not just history.... internal affairs are mostly ignored..

[Kaiseress Semisa I]

When was the last time you read a quote on the back cover and it was completely correct?

[osmose1000]

Of course. Lemme just get Newsweek to quote this...

I could care less who says it, just that I get some quotes. Who am I trying to impress? This isn't making money or anything.

"Still wondering if Scott ever saw my note about some things before he decided to start printing this thing." - me

[Chrimigules]

"I haven't read it and I already know it's good." - self

[Conglacio]

"It mentions me, so it is good" - me

[21st Century Stjepan]

"This book fails to mention the outstanding contribution of myself to the development of micronationalism and thus constitutes an insult to the name of the glorious Turkmen people." - Saparmurat Niyazov Turkmenbashi the Great, Father of All Ethnic Turkmens

"Turkmens are Turkish wannabes." - Bill Dusch

Can't blame them. Turkish food is fantastic.
