If your question is _are_ there any more anagrams, I’m certain the answer is yes. Otherwise, what’s the question ?😉 ---

**UncleBeer** you’ve **been cruel**. Actually, if you play about writing an anagrams program you discover that the problem is one of filtration, not of the scarcity of possible words for most phrases and names. Even the 5 letter moniker I’m using here - **o, baby!**. I suspect this is on its way to MPSIMS. Personally, I always liked “Republican National Convention” = “puritanical ban on innocent love”. ---

I thought there was an interesting example of an anagram when the book “Rocket Boys” was made into a movie a few years ago. The producers felt the title wasn’t good enough for whatever reason, so they changed the name of the movie to “October Sky”–a perfect anagram of the original title. ---
