Anyway, I just feel this whole "Yeshivahs need to teach public speaking" is just so inane, what with public speaking being one of the most despised tasks by all of humanity. (k'yodua the joke about it being the #1 fear).
I had to make a speech a few hours ago and I still have knots in my stomach. Maybe I should revisit this topic in a couple of days when my nerves are back to normal.
