I read the article. It says that in the sentences the words have been chosen carefully and jumbled in a certain/predictable way deliberately to make the statement true- but the conclusion was 'yes' it is a fact that you can read sentences where the letters are jumbled, so long as the first and last letters remain the same...but, states that this isn't the case if the 'jumbling' is done in a more complex way in less predictable sentences.
However when I read the complex, less predictable sentences I didn't find that to be the case. I was able to read them fluently with no problem (with the exception of one word 'magltheuansr'....which stopped me in my tracks for a moment)....So, my reading of the article doesn't make me conclude that it is a trick.
Thank you for pointing the article out to me, I was fascinated to read all about it.
