Summary: Backquote excercise

Initial Comment:
The chapter on macros at one point defines a simple
macro. Then the following excersise is given:

"Exercise: Try writing the new version of the macro
without using backquote. If you can't do it, you have
done the exercise correctly, and learned what backquote
is for!"

Why I'm supposed not to be able to convert the macro?

If you can do it without backquote, that's great!  It's just an annoyingly 
difficult chore, so it shows you why backquote is so useful.
