there's an interesting Reuters news piece about public speaking. hmm, with what this study has revealed concerning the calming of one's nerves before a public event, maybe i will have to rethink my choice of not speaking at defcon this year. heh, this research would also lend legitimacy to the idea of staffing the speaker ready room with scene whores willing to contribute their time and energy in the interest of making defcon presentations as good as they can be.
