That's actually not a true Turing test, since the people in question would have no way of knowing that they were talking with a machine. Under the rules of the Turing test, a human judge is told that they will be talking to a computer and to a human via text communication, and asked to judge which is which. That's a much higher level of scrutiny than the example you posted.
