[edit] Ecnalubma
Ecnalubma is what is painted in ambulance so that you can read the work in a rear-view mirror. This is the source of several jokes and a TV commerical. Notable? Does it belong elsewhere? Wikipedia is not a joke book. Fplay 06:22, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

- Searching, I mainly find things like this Unword Fictionary article and this pseudodictionary article, which aren't reliable sources even by the loosest interpretation, and people using the word to simply refer to an ambulance. The only things that approach being sources and that aren't outright jokes are articles like this one and this one which tell us that "ECNALUBMA" is not what is printed on the fronts of ambulances. It's difficult to see how this article can be expanded in any way. Uncle G 19:27, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
