This is somewhat comforting. Because I'm recording a lot of online training these days, and man, I can still hear the MidWestern vowels of Wisconsin in my accent. And I haven't lived in Wisconsin for 16 years! And I was only there for 2 years! (Not that there's anything wrong with a Wisconsin accent. *g*)

Which American accent do you have? Canadian People from outside North America probably think you're from the States, but over here we wouldn't make such a mistake.

Okay, you've got me beat. I'm just Northern Ontario, Southern Ontario, Wisconsin, back to Southern Ontario again. (Of course, I also tend to soak up the accent of any place I spend more than a week in, which adds to the general confusion.)

We could join hands and sing "We are the World." Alternatively, we could get legless and sing rugby songs. Ahem...

I'm just not prepared to put the effort in to *not* picking it up as it seems so bloody artificial to me to do so although I know quite a few Brits here who do... My English accent swings back in fast enough if I'm home for a week. Although I haven't really picked up any of the Southern accent, just too alien to me, I've just picked up the vocabulary. *g*
