Someone emailed me the above a few years ago. Interesting, yes. Useful? Meh.
I find it much easier to read if I avoid looking at individual words and just sort of glide over the sentences. It helps that words consisting of 3 or fewer letters can't be changed without breaking the rules. It makes the structure of the sentence more apparent.

Oh, it's useful. In fact it's necessary to read summa the stuff on th web!

The gibberish one encounters on the web isn't as organized as the above passage. ^_^

I'm one of the 55 as well. I also agree that the stuff seen on the web is not nearly as organized as the first post.

heh maybe us 55% who can read it are natural bad spellers :D

so does stuff like this account for when people missay or spell a word that is very similar to another?

Wow, this is strange. When I first started to read the paragraph, I did't realize there was anything wrong. The fact that I can read it is bizarre.

Hey I think ther are a couple of typo's in that stuff.
