"This book is really excellent. It is a very niche thing, and it is very well done, by a couple of passionate and somewhat maniacal collectors and researchers.

There are excellent photographs (black-and-white) throughout, illustrating various representative styles, with discussions of the various features, functions, dates, locations, markings, and commonalities among different styles and makers."

Alan Moore
“Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Pagliacci.”
Alan Moore, Watchmen

“Campaigns and elections are the process in which democracy separates the willing from the able, and goes with the willing.”

“Each party has a platform--a pre-fixed menu of beliefs making up its worldview. The candidate can choose one of the two platforms, but remember: no substitutions.

For example, do you support healthcare? Then you must also want a ban on assault weapons. Pro limited government? Congratulations, you are also anti-abortion.

Luckily, all human opinion falls neatly into one of the two clearly defined camps. Thus, the two-party system elegantly represents the bi-chromatic rainbow that is American political thought.”
