    I’m sure that was the inspiration for this post.

      That was my first inclination as well.

      I do think it’s interesting the similarities between the American South accents and the former British colony accents. I saw a documentary once that said there’s an accent from some island in Virginia (or maybe the Carolinas) that is virtually unchanged from the British accent, as was spoken in the 1700s
