These look very similar to a system in a book I've had for a few years: "Stenografie leicht gelernt" von Hanns Kaus, c1992. But I just can't bring myself to get excited about a shorthand script that uses the width of a stroke as a meaningful element. I like the idea of Gregg shorthand, but Gregg isn't explicit or detailed enough to allow for correctly spelled English - it's all phonetic. I had to create my own script for writing English. stevo </HTML>
