The reason I bring this up is you have to relearn how to LISTEN to what is said to phonetically record ALL words spoken. You are almost reprogrammed to HEAR words as sounds NOT as meaningful verbiage. I would love to read the tapes she had on her machine (or those from recent days). This would be hard to do as experienced stenos make their own shorthand to their keystrokes.

I'm so disturbed by the number of people in or around DC who are having psychotic breaks...just in the past six weeks...Aaron Alexis, Miriam Carry and now this woman...and those are just the ones we know about. o_Oedit on 10/17/2013 by kosmicjack because: (no reason given)

For the past two and half months, I have felt quite a shift in things. Evil is showing itself in many forms. I really started to take notice the day I watched Kerry insist on attacking Syria. The latest shooting of the woman in front of her child in D.C., and before all of this, the shootings, Boston, Sandy Hook, Aurora, etc. My fiance has told me that even people at his work talk about feeling a sense of pressure, of something about to just snap. It's not just me, or him, the feeling is everywhere.
As I said, I'm not ultra religious, but I am a believer. I feel like the wheat is about to be separated from the chaff, as my grandparents used to say. I think we are heading for some seriously challenging times.

I am now very curious to find out if they (House/Senate stenos) use electronic machines (that record to a processor) or run old school paper tapes (that could be archived along w/transcribed documents). I'll have to research this.
Also, one more interesting part of modern stenography is that the electronic machines are routinely transcribed by scopers (at least that's what I recall being told the position was termed). Scopers READ phonetically (again you are reprogramming your mind) and transcribe what the steno has recorded. I was told this (by a career counselor at my CC) as a job that would build upon my background. Another cool (but ultimately real time stressful) job is working doing closes captioning. Your typos or misheard words can be viewed by millions!

Well it didn't take that long for this to turn into a Christian bashing mess. I am shocked.... shocked I tell you. /sarcedit on 10/16/2013 by Kangaruex4Ewe because: (no reason given)

She choose the Holy Ghost who was speaking through her.
I think He chose her. She's walking up to the podium very convicted by the Holy Spirit. Everyone will deem this as mental illness, or pin her as some religious right wing nut job, but I do believe that these people in DC not dealing in the interests of humanity and the people, will have to answer for what they do. And you know what's funny about this is, I'm so far from being ultra religious. Haven't gone to church in ages, and I'm not a conservative.edit on 17-10-2013 by Taissa because: misspelling
Washington (CNN) – Amid all the chaos of the last-minute deal in Washington, there was an unusual moment on the House floor moments after the bill passed.
A House stenographer and well-known employee calmly took to a microphone and began screaming.
"Do not be deceived. God shall not be mocked. A House divided cannot stand," she said, according to a House GOP aide. After a few seconds, she was escorted out by the Sergeant-at-Arms, but an audio recording by Todd Zwillich of Public Radio International captured the rest of her rant.
"He will not be mocked, He will not be mocked, (don't touch me) He will not be mocked. The greatest deception here, is that this is not one nation under God. It never was. Had it been... it would not have been... No. it would not have been... the Constitution would not have been written by Free Masons... and go against God. You cannot serve two masters. You cannot serve two masters. Praise be to God, Lord Jesus Christ."
"She’s a well-known person, she’s a perfectly nice person, a good colleague, somebody who’s respectable and dependable, and this is very surprising to everybody who works with her," Bash reported on air.

Do you think she snapped because she went off there on the floor? Considering the heat coming from outside the place it looks like many are snapping out here in the press, on the site, here there and everywhere and on a street corner near you.
I suppose those vets snapped when they went through he barricades.
