Your effective decline into misspelling reminds me of this article
(http://www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/~mattd/Cmabrigde/)

Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht
oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist
and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you
can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not
raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

In turn, it also reminds me that vowels are somewhat pointless. For
example:

Th frst scn f th ply ntrdcs s t wrld f wlthy, ppr-clss Chrstn mn lvng n
Vnc. Thr cnvrstn rvls tht thy r mn f bsnss wh tk grt rsks wth mny nd r crfl
t vd smng vrly cncrnd bt thr nvstmnts. Fr xmpl, ntn clmly dns hs sscts'
sggstn tht h s wrrd bt hs shps, nd Slr's dscrptn f shpwrck, wth slks nrbng
th rrng wtrs nd spcs scttrd pn th strm, s lyrcl nd ptc rthr thn prctcl r
