I was thinking the same thing, but I am far to frugal so far to actually spend money on plates. I was thinking of WMN combo for a similar reason. I have to look at the XK factor though.

Top was old, bottom is new. I had the Challenger plate because I was born minutes before it went up for the last time... Always interested in space too.

Idea was stolen with permission from Mark.

The plate that I made for my new ex: sigh...


It's a palindrome (you can flip it and it's the same), you can also mirror it in the center, and it's the start of a nursery rhyme!
