	The Cardboard Box
		In the 1830's, shorthand was popularized by Sir Isaac Pitman, whose Pitman Method is distinguished by the shading of penstrokes, heavy or light, with 204 short forms.
		The Gregg Method is characterized by symbols based on longhand strokes, with 129 brief forms.
		It's swifter and smoother than earlier shorthand methods, and may have been used to record the criminal statement in CARD (1889).

	Shorthand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pitman's is still in use in some parts of the English-speaking world, but in the USA (and elsewhere) it has been superseded by the Gregg Shorthand that was first published in 1888 by John Robert Gregg.
		This method was first used in the German Gabelsberger shorthand in the early 19th century, and it is common in all more recent German shorthand systems.
		Although Pitman's method was extremely popular at first (and is still commonly used, especially in the UK) its popularity has been superseded (especially in the United States) by a method developed by John Robert Gregg in 1888.

		Although Pitman's method was extremely popular at first (and is still commonly used) its popularity has been superseded by a method developed by John Robert Gregg in 1888.
		Gregg's system, like Pitman's, is phonetic, but has the advantage of being "light-line." While Pitman's system uses thick and thin strokes to distinguish related sounds, Gregg's uses only thin strokes and makes some of the same distinctions by the length of the stroke.
		Pitman and Gregg are both examples of symbol shorthand systems, which are completely new written representations for English.

	Stenography
		Shorthand is a method of writing rapidly by substituting characters, abbreviations, or symbols for letters, words, or phrases.
		Pitman had learned Taylor's method of shorthand but saw its weakness and designed his own system to incorporate writing by sound, the same principle he advocated in phonetic longhand spelling.
		Her method was designed to be taken down on the typewriter; but in 1942 it was changed to be written by hand with pen or pencil.

		The originality of Pitman's method was in the comprehensive list of symbols he provided for vowel sounds, as in the different sounds made by the letter 'a' in: cab, cake, car and caught.
		When Pitman was dismissed as headmaster from the school in Gloucestershire in 1837 because the management disapproved of his openly expressed belief in the doctrines of the Swedish philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg*, he moved to Bath and opened a private school there in 1839.
		Pitman was a passionate about popularizing shorthand and he began to go on lecture tours in his school holidays.

	mortality
		Methods die in such places because of a growing dissatisfaction over the promises made, often also because teachers do not have the personality or the energy to act as the method demands.
		Direct methods roughly from 1880 to 1910, eclectic methods from 1910 to 1940, audio-lingualism from 1940 to 1970, with a short cognitive-code reaction in the decade around 1970, communicative methods from the early seventies to the mid-nineties, post-communicative methods since then.
		And all wise methods must concede that the final key to successful language learning is tied to two variables that the method does not have in hand: the motivation of the students and the intensity of their personal work.

	Trauma
		The three phases of treatment of the TRI Method model are: (1) stabilization (including management of the fear of confronting traumatic memories) (2) “trauma work” or memory processing, and (3) integration of trauma-related affect, cognitions, and patterns of behavior.
		The first phase of the TRI Method focuses on providing the patient with the minimum safety and stability necessary to transition to the next phase of resolving intrusive symptoms, which is facilitated through memory processing.
		The multiple assessments by Tinnin on the TRI Method and by Hossack and Bentall for V/KD suggest that both testing and statistical regression are controlled for; similarly, instrumentation is controlled for in that the scoring procedures and criteria were the same at pretest and posttest assessments.

	Pitman Shorthand
		Pitman shorthand, system of rapid writing based on the sounds of words (i.e., the phonetic principle) rather than on conventional spellings.

		After clerking in a textile mill, Pitman entered a training college for teachers (1831) and taught in elementary schools for 11 years before opening his own private school in Bath.

		Among the 12 who originally signed up — the ideal maximum number is 15, she says — was a housewife who plans to teach the method to her young children, an administrative assistant in a local elementary school, a college student born in Indonesia, and a man who works in the intelligence field.
		Unlike Pitman, in Gregg the thickness of a line is consistent, and the exact position of a vertical stroke on paper is not critical.
