These are great quotes.  I've added them to the <http:// 
microformats.org/wiki/introduction> page.  Feel free to hack further.

== What are Microformats? ==

Microformats are the "dictionaries" of XHTML semantic content.  They  
are for codifying commonly used information-rich HTML content in such  
a way that semantic meaning can be machine extracted.  In short, they  
are the easiest-possible way to design data (or data formats)  
intended for reuse on the web.
