I (re)discovered a similar scheme about 7 years ago for encoding numbers based on the observation that 20 consonants + 5 vowels offers essentially the same information density as base 10 numbers. Excluded 'c' because it seemed the most redundant (with 'k' and 's'). I've found it particularly useful for generating random temporary passwords that can be communicated verbally rather than needing to be emailed.
