For those who like their puzzles forward and backward

March 19, 2013

I have always had a small spot in my heart for palindromes, those strange puzzles in which the letters appear in the same order forward and backward. Example: A man, a plan, a canal: Panama. Wouldn’t you know the winners of the new Symmys  contest were announced recently? Jon Agee won in the short category for the following:

An igloo costs a lot, Ed! Amen. One made to last! So cool, Gina!

Making sense is secondary to the exact order of the letters. See the article for other entries.
