Since I know you're a fan of linguistics (and the vowel r), I'll note that I've done some research into the history of stenography and found some interesting overlap with linguistics and ancient memory techniques: boffosocko.com/2014/07/05/th…

The Major System and Gregg Shorthand Have Same Structure

The commonly acknowledged mnemonic techniques behind the major system utilize the same consonant linguistic structure as John Robert Gregg's Shorthand.

That's fascinating! I remember trying to learn Gregg shorthand when I was like 10. I never really got the hang of it, but have a lot of notebooks filled with practice squiggles!

First time I've ever seen a stenography machine outside of a courtroom. Much respect to anybody who has the skill to use one.
