That IS crazy! But also kind of cool :)
I have seen this before, a few years ago..to make things weirder, I thought of this very paragraph yesterday when I saw a license plate that said "SWAHN"...I must have looked at it 5 times before I realized that it was NOT my son's name!!
In order to understand it you have to have know a lot about linguistics that you are unaware of. That is why names with strange spellings baffle teachers. They break all of the rules. This paragraph doesn't, that is why we can read it.
I can actually read this with no problem - what does that say about me?
