Many Americans speak and are accusomed to hearing english pronounced with a Chicago/St. Louis accent because of 2 decades of network television news. Provided that the folks that sell the soap keep giving us voices like Walt Cronkite and Coky Roberts to listen to, things are likely to remain this way. chas. --------------------------- "had a chat with Lizard God lately?" decvax!ccb
