MoreCooler.com: It's more cooler with the thing

"Anidroccg to crad cniyrrag lcitsiugnis planoissefors at an uemannd, utisreviny in Bsitirh Cibmuloa, and crartnoy to the duoibus cmials of the ueticnd rcraeseh, a slpmie, macinahcel ioisrevnn of ianretnl cretcarahs araepps sneiciffut to csufnoe the eadyrevy oekoolnr."

The internal letters are simply inverted - i.e. simply becomes slpmiy.

Is the problem with this method just that the letters are too far from where we expect them? Though that slashdot example of leaving them out completely was readable, I think it would have also been equally readable if the letters were in this pattern. However, the text above is a bit more complex (by design, it appears) so we need more context (or pieces in the middle) to interpret it.... So, I'd say that the original assertion that the position of the letters in the middle doesn't matter was an oversimplification.
