Hyperbole gets me again--I should have stopped at 'one' rather than first one or two.

Still, the point remains that if I'm giving a presentation, I want the audience focused on what I'm talking about now, not some other point that I'll be talking about in a minute or two. Build slides let that happen.

Slightly OT, I do my build slides 'by hand' after a couple bad experiences trying animation with one version of PP and having it not work on a different version of PP on a computer hard-wired to the projector system.
