One of the more interesting text puzzles I've solved. Nicely done.

At first I wasn't going to rate this puzzle as I could not find "ambigram" in the dictionary (on-line or off). However, a search came up with the information that it is apparently a made-up name by the tatoo industry for words that can be read right-side up or up-side down. Using that definition this is a fair image.

If you look at the cover of the movie, "The Princess Bride," you will have an excellent example of an ambigram (a term I've never seen either). INCONCEIVABLE

Ambi-gram = "both" "written"

Remember, there are different types, not just rotational.

MA'AM gives a reflection-ambigram. As does HAH, bod...

And MOM rotated gives WOW - a two-meaning ambigram

This is one of those terms that I keep forgetting. I've heard it before, but this puzzle will make me remember. So that's very cool.

Also, very clever, Darren!
