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.

Some really excellent phrasing in this transcription! Worth reading twice in order to try to remember some of the phrases for future use.
And until today I didn't know "buffalo" was "b-u-f". I guess that's a word we don't see too often!
These are fun to write. It beats the heck out of reading boring business letters, right?
I try to phrase as much as possible. Sometimes I don't when I can't fit the outline in the space, but for the most part I do.
Yes, "buffalo" is written according to the Abbreviating Principle. That's how you write "Buffalo, NY."
Yes, the articles you post here are several orders of magnitude more interesting than those business letters. I enjoy reading these. As for the business letters, well, of all the things I've read, they're among them.
