Growing up in a coal town in PA everybody sounded the same... I was a communications major who studied phonetics to lose the accent. Did morning drive-time news and weather on the campus radio.Finished school in Charleston, South Carolina and lost all semblance of my small town dialect. Now, transplanted to Florida's melting pot I have no distinct accent...
