I had never heard of shorthand. Just found out that it's a technique to transcribe spoken words using symbols to form the outline of a word rather than spelling it out. Also read that it takes about a year to master it.., ouch! Thanks for the comment, Ashlee. I had never heard of shorthand.

Handwriting is so oldschool... as for the "writing speed", I think it definitely would have been on people's CVs, except it probably would be their shorthand speed, especially for receptionist types. As part of my journalism training, I had to undertake the very arduous and old school task of learning teeline shorthand so that I could write at 120 words a minute... typing fast is a much easier skill to acquire! Learning shorthand was just soooooo boring! Hey, thanks for dropping by my blog.
