>That's funny... :o) I've always been told I have no accent (probably from living and traveling my entire life), but after 17 years in the south, it creeps into my speech now and then...
The worst is the southern drawl. That damn accent is more contagious than bird flu. I met a girl from Alabama many many moons ago who was visiting a friend of mine here. It didn't take more than an hour til I was starting to drawl. I had to keep catching myself because I didn't want her to think I was mocking her.
