    Beth,
    This is my 3rd year in Toastmasters in Beverly MA, and 2nd year as VP of Membership. I can't agree with you more on this quote. Being prepared to speak extemporaneously is one of the hardest things to do well. Thank you for this useful quote. Have a great weekend. Roberta

    Thanks, Roberta! This quote supports a point I like to make often, which is that no one is really a "natural" ... the best of the best work at it!
