Palindromes

I think that palindromes are very cool! This was a neat idea for a blog and a fun thing to explore.
There are so many different palindromes that people have discovered.  I'm still in the process of trying to think of my own.  The most fascinating non-math palindromes are the ones that aren't just one word, but whole sentences, paragraphs even.  It's crazy what people can come up with (and maybe how much time they have on their hands (; )!
P.S During my research, I found that palindromes are used in a lot of computer codes!


Some of the palindromic square numbers are: 0, 1, 4, 9, 121, 484, 676, 10201, 12321
If a number n, is followed by any number of zeros, and then the number n again, it will be a palindrome. i.e 10000001 or 2002 or 3000000000000000000000000000000000000000003.
