Re: Earliest published ambigram?
My appy-polly-loggies, since I'm one of those mentally ill people we've been discussing, my mammary is a bit shakey and I really did think urine name is Gala, even though I knew before that it is Gayla, but I've never been good at names, I've had to come up with all these ruses when I see people to avoid calling them by name, or maybe it's incipient Altzy's, or who knows, why am I being so defensive, why don't I just admit to myself that I got your name wrong, and why am I referring to myself, that's a Hofstadter self-reference thing, and ewe no the very best, most powerful form of self referece (IMHO) is to use intelligence to boot-up ever higher levels of intelligence, another is the mind studying the mind, and Dr. Hofstadter stated in one of his books that he thinks self-reference, and general reference, is the key to Humanity's ever spiraling upwards advancement to infinite knowledege, and you know - I megaditto that concept. You're too creative for me. I can't compete. I'll have to go away, shame-faced, and cry in my pillow. You're just too good, Layla. You win. - Ron
