    thanks... just now i learned another factoid about (rotten) Cubed Melon



    [ Rot13 ]
    The word ravine is transformed under ROT13 to enivar — its reversal, although not a word.

    The only known pair of common English words which are each other's ROT13 and reversal are gnat and tang.

    vex is transformed to irk under ROT13; the words are synonyms.

    terra can be transformed to green to give a satisfying pair.
