LOL I have a mate like that. He'll spend 20 minutes preparing during breakfast or something then in the presentation he's really pally and familiar with the audience like he was talking to a mate and usually he ends up talking too much but he does sound confident. [/QUOTE]Grrr... I can only blag stuff when I'm confident I know more about the subject than anyone listening, which doesn't happen all that often. So I usually have to resign myself to days in the library. Like today, for example... tax evasion and black market analysis anyone?
