I was a bit disappointed that Barry's article did not contain any palindromes itself. I tried to reverse it and scan for words which might form palindromes, but found only one real candidate with a manual search before I, an insufficiently skilled/trained/devoted reader, glazed over: busy, nay! from "any subject". I'll continue to work on my reading, but don't have much hope.

Fortunately, I'm a programmer, so a quick script found the following words in the reversed text: name, mail, item, sign, both, cart, tell, arts, ever, unit, named, refer, demo, busy, rail, tube, semi, tons, tire, nuts, bare, tubes, rows, memo, stir, baton, verb, mania, erase, astro, carte, peek, warp, stub, veil, dime, carp, tyre.

"Mania" from "remain a mystery" was the only notable find IMO. Sadly, that would be harder to turn into a palindrome, because "yretsy" is not a substring of anything. No deeper secrets seem to have been embedded.

Reversed, the text is:
