A question I have always had that seems to never have been brought up - is it even possible to do a Speaking? Seems the only people who could pull it off would be psychologists. I mean, its about understanding motivations along with the actions. And, frankly, I wouldn't trust them to understand me. If I wanted a Speaking than I would write my own to be read to an audience.

You make a good point, but a good Speaker is a man (or woman) who is educated, and intellegent, and wise enough to discover who you really were. Of course, a speaking cannot take place instantly upon a person's death. The Speaker must come to know you first, and this means getting to know the people around you, your friends, family, lovers, and the general community. From the information and stories a Speaker learns from this enable him/her to understand, and intimately *know* who you were.
