It’s three a.m. and I just woke up in a cold sweat from a nightmare where I got onstage to give my speech, but a bear started moving through the crowd, and no one was scared of it except for me, and it came barreling through and everyone stepped aside for it even though it was heading straight for me, slowly, and right before it went up on its hind legs to maul me, I woke up. And I realized: Coop’s methods may work for tests and class time, but they don’t work for speeches. I’ll be up there with nowhere to escape, and no way to avoid it.
