Re: Some skinny on court reporting

That's so true, Diuretic. People talk over one another all of the time. It makes the job a whole lot worse. There are just so many little things that go into it, that people can't even imagine. If you stop and think that the court reporter is literally trying to get down every single word that comes out of a person's mouth, it is pretty incredible -- and quite impossible!

Oh, and Tele, I'm glad that I helped shed some light on things for your sister. Her carpal tunnel was a blessing in disguise.

They have machines now that are taking down people's words, but they are not as fast as reporters. One day, court reporters will be obsolete with the continual advancement of technology.
