Excerpt from American Fonostenografy: A Modern System of Rapid and Readable ShortandAnd so through the evolution of shorthand systems there came to be two well defined classes of phonographies - the one com posed of methods based, as a rule, on the original Pitmanic systems and efficient for every reporting purpose, but, by reason of complexity and illegibility, capable of acquirement only by the exceedingly gifted or the supremely industrious the other made up of methods of shorthand which are so simple as to be readily mastered, but whose simplicity results from such limita tion in principles and development as necessarily renders them absolutely incapable of reporting power.
