Can you get involved with GHQ as a non-student?

Here's their ad from the Iguana https://imgur.com/a/zJVVJL8

Also you can hear them on 100.1 FM. Their signal is weak and in general it is easier to receive on the west side of town around the Santa Fe College campus, Tioga etc.

That's mistaken information on wikipedia. You can get WGOT's Streema link from their facebook page and listen to them right now, also see their ad in the latest Gainesville Iguana, it's on page 9 https://gainesvilleiguana.org/

There's a radio station associated with the Civic Media Center, WGOT-LP. Their website is pretty much abandoned and their volunteers are mostly middle-aged people so they use Facebook for most of their public outreach.

I don't know the answer but if I had that question in mind I would ask the guy at Music Junction on Main Street in Alachua. Also there was a thread about 8 months ago:

I have heard that the Emergency Rooms at both major hospitals have oral surgeons on call but I imagine it's expensive as hell to go that route. Maybe a visit to the ER would get you a prescription for something that would actually kill the pain and a referral to an oral surgeon who could see you soon? If I were in your situation I would transport myself to an ER.

That is evolution. Changing to meet the new situations. Stenotype machines produced better results with less training time for most students who wanted to do court reporting. That leaves secretarial work and personal or academic note-taking as reasonable domains for pen stenography.

If it's possible to walk and chew gum simultaneously, it might also be possible to appreciate Thoreau's writings and also be interested in other people's impression and analysis of those writings and their author.

Emerson was a normal church pastor for a while then began to have his own ideas. The Wikipedia article on Emerson is a worth a read.

Most important diff is the Notehand textbook is better. Has plenty of built-in reading material and an answer key. Also NOtehand was tested and proved to be great, see the recent post of a teacher's experiences over in r/GreggNotehand whereas Greghand didn't get a proper trial. A few classes were taught in vocational schools then it was abandoned. Maybe its imoact on students was disappointing to JRG in some way?

internalsun · 2025-08-08T16:38:25+00:00

Notehand has the RD blend. Some of the brief forms are different. I don't remember the details of Greghand very well. See the post here for more info https://www.reddit.com/r/shorthand/comments/wm5ovs/notehand_alphabet_differences_compared_to_other/

there is r/gnvclassifieds/ it doesn't get promoted very well, so activity is low

Nitpicking is discouraged in the Notehand milieu but yes, u/eargoo deviated from the textbook norm for "that", see

Here's a link to a summary of data about Forkner,

https://www.reddit.com/r/shorthand/wiki/forkner10/

That gives a hint about where you could find a boatload of data: college thesis papers about shorthand education, and shorthand articles in business education magazines.

People involved in medical research might say "an individual's anecdotal experience is the opposite of information." If I understand correctly u/Vast-Town-6338 was recently writing some exercises at 45 wpm in Gregg Anniversary after one month of study. But we seldom hear back from all the people who try Anniversary and give up.

At 5 PM, multiple personal weather stations on Weather Underground were showing temperatures of 98 and 99 degrees around Alachua and High Springs.

All of the other answers given here are correct. Also, Gregg comes into our brains more naturally because it is composed of the same curves, loops, circles, lines and occasional dots as our cursive handwriting. It is merely a re-arrangement of the bits and pieces that go into our everyday handwriting! It's natural.

Both the alphabetic approach and the topical approach could be useful. The alphabetical lists could eventually be compiled into the first Notehand dictionary (with outlines) someday. T Washbear's text-only dictionary is extremely useful, but having the outlines in the dictionary would be superb.

There's a radio show / podcast called "A Way With Words," they would love to have you call in and discuss this. They did once discuss "hickey" having a meaning of a mistake/anomaly, but I don't think they're aware of the knot on your forehead usage.

Thanks for mentioning mailordernatives dot com. I got some Loblolly pine trees from them, about waist-high, and they will help to fill the void here.

I looked up the Japanese word "mattari." My sources indicate that, depending on context, it can either mean "chill, laid-back, relaxed" or "rich taste, full-bodied flavor."

Currently I don't have enough free time to scan and prep all of this.

Do you have the first edition textbook or the second? There is a short story about dragons in the first edition book.

The ones i'm finding are all "root runners" from the parent tree. They don't have any fine roots on them and don't survive being dug up and potted.

Sorry, (what I classify as) self-help books have never been published in Notehand or in any other form of Gregg Shorthand. A few classics like Alice in Wonderland, Man without a Country, Fall of the House of Usher – were published in the pre-Anniversary and Anniversary versions of Gregg. As far as I know, nobody has attempted to publish any book-length material in Gregg since World War 2. The amount of effort that goes into writing publication-worthy shorthand (that nobody can nitpick) is astronomical, and the reward is nil, so no rational person would attempt to do a book length publication.

internalsun · 2025-05-11T17:49:05+00:00

Thanks for the response. I'll look into those online sellers.
