So how did you get your nickname used here?

It's a coincidence that it's symmetric

thats called a palindrome.

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

THAT ISN'T A &#%*ing PALINDROME!

Code:

DIM AS STRING Phrase,R_Phrase
Phrase="a man a plan a canal panama"
FOR I=LEN(Phrase) TO 1 STEP -1
    R_Phrase=R_Phrase + MID(Phrase,I,1)
NEXT
IF R_Phrase=Phrase THEN PRINT "Palindrome confirmed."
IF R_Phrase<>Phrase THEN PRINT "Not a palindrome."
SLEEP
