    <content type="html">First noticed this on &lt;a href="http://www.lafferty.ca/2007/11/14/accent-quiz-meme/"&gt;Rich Lafferty's blog&lt;/a&gt; and it was too tempting NOT to try.  My results were entertaining:&lt;table border="0" bgcolor="black" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="10"&gt;&lt;tr bgcolor="white"&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica" size="2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youthink.com/quiz.asp?action=take&amp;amp;quiz_id=9827"&gt;&lt;font color="#505A84"&gt;What American accent do you have? (Best version so far)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#505A84" size="4"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Northern&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;You have a Northern accent.  That could either be the Chicago/Detroit/Cleveland/Buffalo accent (easily recognizable) or the Western New England accent that news networks go for.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youthink.com/quiz.asp?action=take&amp;amp;quiz_id=9827"&gt;&lt;img alt="Personality Test Results" border="0" src="http://www.youthink.com/quiz_images/full_537664926.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youthink.com/quiz.asp?action=take&amp;amp;quiz_id=9827"&gt;&lt;font face="verdana" size="2" color="white"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Click Here to Take This Quiz&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font size="1" color="C0C0C0" face="verdana"&gt;Brought to you by &lt;a href="http://www.youthink.com/quiz.asp"&gt;&lt;font color="white"&gt;YouThink.com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; quizzes and personality tests.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;p style="text-align:right;font-size:10px;"&gt;Technorati Tags: &lt;a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/language" rel="tag"&gt;language&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;</content>
