We have begun an effort to populate our upcoming book collection for the Salon called The Manual for Civilization. This will be the 3500 books you would most want if you had to restart civilization. So.. If you were stranded on a desert island, what books will YOU pick? Come on, be honest (and selective). Behold the ONE TRUE GOOGLE FORM. We have made strides to make it as easy as possible to make submissions. Our main identifier is an Amazon URL which will later be parsed by a massive child labor force in a secret underground bunker into things like ISBN and book size etc. But right now we are trying to grow the list as broad as possible with amazing selections. Dont get too hung up on details or categories, just make good submissions. There will be a later vetting process that will be more fun that playing "Hot or Not" in 01998. Ready, set, go..! (dont forget to bookmark this page so you can come back to it as you think of more books later) -- Alexander Rose Long Now executive director -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Members mailing list unsubscribe / change email: http://list.longnow.org/mailman/listinfo/members _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss
