Back a gram (Posted on 2009-04-07) Difficulty: 3 of 5
This is a companion to "Wrap a gram"

As in that problem this table contains words to be read downwards but of 4 letters.
All words are to be replaced with an anagram. All but two (differently coloured) are constructed by "reverse" wraparound.
For example:
Take the word "fire", reverse the order of letters to get "erif". In this case we only need to cycle the letter "e" to the rear to create the anagram "rife".

T V F N D T M M T E C W C L S M S D T T M R
I A A U I A I U I L I A A O O I U O A I A O
M S R T A N T C P S R S S B R R C N R D N O
E E E S L G E H S E E H E E E E K E E E E M


To the perceptive, find a 22 letter statement within the mess!

Note: some words in the table as well as in the solution will not be in common usage.

Partial spoiler? 

That list!  Had I realised the variants I should have looked for a higher difficulty!

I have generally used the more common words from the list but completely overlooked some others.

If it helps to choose the appropriate anagram in each case the statement begins in the top left corner.

Sorry, I didn't realise the 'minefield' that existed here.
