Anniversary/simplified/DJ vowels

For some of you with more experience: (I guess that would be anyone….)

After reading aroung the Gregg sites on the web, and this one, I’ve decided to go with learning either DJ or Simplified–I’m leaning to Simplified, since I’ve already got the book, and he extra brief forms don’t appear to be too much trouble.

So, in all of this comparison, I noticed something odd–and I’m probably not the first to notice it.

The vowels in Anniversary have marks to differentiate between different “a” sounds, and different “o” sounds. The summary of DJS that I have printed off shows the same markings. But they don’t appear in my Simplified text anywhere–at least not that I can find.

So, did Gregg drop them, and then find out they were needed—or have I missed something. And if they were dropped, and were needed, should I learn them and use, or go with DJ.

Thanks for your input
