We from the south mispronounce a whole slew of words...big deal!

I'm originally from West by-God Virginia and we mangle most words! ("Warsh Cloth," "Warshington DC", "Let's go swim in the 'crick'," etc.) And who the heck does he think he is anyway? He's from Joy-zey - not exactly know as the land of elocution! (no offense to any of you from Jersey).

Actually, you're just giving a home to letters that have been abandoned by New Englanders.
