I just wanted to say that the points that Jerome brought up in his blog about the readings were really good points. First, I have to say that I was also wondering about the 90/10 rule that was mentioned in the reading, and thank you to Terri for clarifying that.
I never really thought about how important accomodating for the audience could be in the success or failure of a speech. Hope you all like caffeine!
I also like how Jerome brought up the connectives. I think that it is really important in a speech, or any paper for that matter, to have good transitions. That makes the paper (or speech) so much smoother, and helps eliminate the choppiness.
I also agree about the clincher. If you work so hard on the rest of the speech, you don't want your audience to remember the ending as terrible! Right to the very end it needs to flow smooth.

Amy,
I totally agree with you AND Jerome, and I thought your speech about caffine was actually really informative. I'm excited to see the refined version because I already thought it was pretty damn good!
