The shorthand system that is referred to is Groote, not Greg.

Greg invented it
Groote derived it so that he could write while riding horses

Who invented shorthand?

Hi, I am the guy who created the shorthand page at http://waij.comshorthand. To put things right: Greg did not invent shorthand. Consensus is that shorthand was invented by a Roman slave named Tiro (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Tullius_Tiro).
