A few years ago I had a desk calendar with a palindrome for every week. That was a great year! It's still on my bookshelf somewhere. My personal favorite was "Sit on a potato pan, Otis."

Welcome, Littljoe!  I bet you can still easily get one of those calendars at any good bookstore ~ calendar season is just getting under way. I like the palindrome you quoted, hadn't heard that one before.

Thanks for the welcome!
The calendar was for 1991, which was obviously the point. Here are a couple more:
Traci tore erotic art Laminated E.T. animal
And this truly astonishing one from the preface, credited to Alastair Reid:
T. Eliot, top bard, notes putrid tang emanating, is sad. "I'd assign it a name: gnat dirt upset on drab pot toilet."
I've never seen anything quite like that.

Wow.

Here's the full 'Adam and Eve' palindromic dialogue, entitled: In Eden, I (The names aren't part of the palindromes) ADAM: Madam- EVE: Oh, who- ADAM: [No girl-rig on!] EVE: Heh? ADAM: Madam, I'm Adam. EVE: Name of a foeman? ADAM: O, stone me! Not so. EVE: Mad! A maid I am, Adam.
