I couldn't even get through all of the original article.

Having said that; and having formally studied linguistics at an undergrad level, "Furiously sleep ideas green colorless" is different than "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously" in that the former is not grammatical.

It is also the case that non-grammatical sentences can have meaning. For example, I believe that most English speaker would agree that the sentence "me happy" is not grammatical, and indicates that the speaker is happy.
