I wonder why that happens. Like I mentioned, it's gone away for me due to practice, but I still have to tamp it down a bit if there's a long introduction or if I'm the third speaker or something and have to wait.

I bet it's an evolutionary thing where cavemen would rush a speaking caveman and kill him if they got bored with the presentation. There's got to be some good reason for it.
