You're right the paper in the article was a review of existing studies rather than new work.

And yet even so, witness the responses in this thread.

To all who "disagree" with the article, just to be clear, it's not saying that some people aren't fast readers with respect to others, or even that no improvement is possible. It's saying that the kinds of levels of improvement promised by speed reading courses etc are at the expense of comprehension.
