Cut your tongue to speak good English

Quite amazing, really:

I saw that on CNN's scrolling news bar thing. I wonder if it works?

I've no idea if it works - but from what the article detailed, I suspect that the people involved will be able to do very good impressions of KISS lead singer, Gene Simmonsm as he is reported to have undergone a similar operation quite some time ago.
