However, as has been speculated here, it requires
either an almost total familiarity with a given
object, or fairly 'strong' magical ability to Summon
something.

As for objects that cannot be Summoned, I would offer
that some are inherently immune, some creatures are so
immune, and others simply require too much effort. 
Something here about flying mountains, perhaps?

If you knew the person's True name, then perhaps so. 
Unless, of course, you're a small person trying to
Summon (e.g.) Nero Wolfe.  I doubt even Archie would
contemplate that task!

Cheers,
