Hey people, I forget what you call it but there are words or sentences in english that if reversed, spell the exact same thing..
one example:
a man a plan a canal panama

More obvious examples include: mom, dad and racecar.
what is this called again? And does anyone out there know any more?

I believe it's called a palindrome. At least it's called palindrom in Danish, so that's a fair guess. Kayak is all I can think of right now.

@Xcom Freak: Do you seriously believe anybody is actually going to check if that's a palindrome?

Not me, I'll just take your word for it. Nice.
