It's funny that you posted this. I'm just starting to study the basic cognitive operations behind language, and this very example was used. Fun stuff.

There's a more formal example that I've seen a couple times that mentions that the first and last letter are the most important. There are other rules and concepts that apply, I just can't seem to remember them right now. I'll poke around and see if I can find the text I'm talking about.

Here you go....
Acocdrnig to an elgnsih unviesitry sutdy the oredr of
letetrs in a wrod dosen't mttaer, the olny thnig
thta's iopmrantt is that the frsit and lsat ltteer of
eevry word is in the crcreot ptoision. The rset can be
jmbueld and one is stlil able to raed the txet wiohtut
dclftfuiiy.
