I would like to get a list of long, well mixed anagram phrases found by Google.
Examples:
Help International / Little Orphan Annie
Conference Director / Reinforced concrete
racial tensions / national crises
Ideally, the phrases should be well known -- lots of Google appearances.
The letters should be well mixed. Also, there must be pages where the
phrases do not appear on the same page, to prevent listings of known
anagrams. |

I'm pretty good with word tools and anagrams and the like. But I'm
afraid I don't really understand your question, or how we can best
help you.
Can you re-phrase it in a way that makes it a bit more clear what you're after?
Thanks,

"Conference Director" is a rearrangement of "Reinforced concrete"
"Secondary qualities" is a rearrangement of "quasi-considerately"
All four of these are found many times by Google searches. I would
like to know what other long anagrams can be found within the Google
database. Preferably, I'd like to see familiar phrases that are longer
than the above.
I have many word lists and Anagramming programs, but I'd like to see
what gems are hidden within the Google database.

Is this the sort of thing you have in mind?
http://www.anagrammy.com/index.htm
It includes some tastefully-rendered, lengthy anagrams like:
Premenstrual syndrome = Tampons render me surly
Let me know what you think.

No,
Premenstrual syndrome = Tampons render me surly
This is not what I am looking for. The first part is
fine -- a well know phrase. But the second part is
*not* a phrase in the Google database. It only appears
along with the generating phrase. If a Google search
on both sides doesn't show frequent, independent usage,
it wouldn't qualify.
I am looking for more transposals / anagrams where *both*
parts are well known names or phrases, as in
Conference Director == Reinforced concrete
I believe the *Google Database* can find excellent examples
of this type.

I am confused by your statement, "I believe the Google Database* can
find excellent examples of this type."
There are millions or even billions of English-language phrases
indexed by Google. There are probably trillions of potential
combinations of phrases to sift through.
I understand for the most part what you want us to find. But how
specifically do you believe that the Google database is significant
for answering this question, aside from the requirement that the words
should appear frequently in the database?

Incidentally, I hope that you don't mind my saying that I am confused.
The confusion may be my insufficient understanding -- hopefully, you
can explain this aspect of the question in order to clear things up
for me.
