Stenographers

Do you have a stenographer?  I was often asked by older practitioners when I started out.  And I did.  Legal secretaries took "shorthand" when you "dictated", or used a "stenotype" machine.  I had both.  Now we have neither.  The tape recorder intervened on the way to pc's and email which also wiped out carbon paper, and the convenient "carbon sets".  - gwc
