The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.
This entertaining story was adapted from the book The Cow-tail Switch: And Other West African Stories by American anthropologists and folklorists Harold Courlander and George Herzog, and was written by yours truly in Simplified Gregg for the blog.
