we can make everyone think we know what we're doing when we have no clue and are shakin' in our shoes on the inside. Such fortitude!

Mir...yes I am quite good at communication skills, actually. LOTS of practice yapping to folks..used to teach school..one of the reasons I can talk in front of people (or yell at them..used to teach phys ed!) Still, talking in front of your peers is quite different and I will still get a bit queasy when I know its going to happen and I can't get out of it.
