http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/1072.gif You are absolutely right. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/35.gif
Sorry for that one. I didn't see that.
Mayby someone else does it better.

The thing with these palindromes are that you get these really stupid sentences.(most of the time)

Here's the longest palindrome I know of (apart from that stunning list of names!).

"A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"

And a short one.

"A Toyota"

Have fun!

http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif That is the longest palindrome I have ever seen. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif
I remember some people which created a palindrome of about 30 words.
I can tell, that these names knocked it out with one punch.
Nice one Furious_Gopher. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/53.gif

Let me give it another try:

A man, a plan, a canoe, pasta, hero's, rajahs,
a coloratura, maps, snipe, percale, macaroni,
a gag, a banana bag, a tan, a tag, a banana bag again,
or: a camel, a crepe, pins, spam, a rut, a Rolo, cash,
a jar, sore hats, a peon, a canal, Panama

I think i found the secret...
