B737 Stall

First post, be nice.

Am converting onto 737NG. The AFM talks in vague terms about the stall discussing speed trim system (STS), elevator feel shift (EFS), stick shaker and natural buffet. With these things going on I'm wondering what characteristic I will see if you went beyond the stick shaker into the stall? That is, what exactly is EFS, how does it work, and what will it look like to me the pilot.

Also the FCTM talks about trim continously into the stall (stop trimming and recover at stick shaker). What's this about? I thought we were supposed to stop trimming at 1.3Vs in stalls?

Detailed technical answers appreciated, am keen for more than the dumbed down Boeing speak.

Thanks in advance,
