Add into that the fact that I'm just as likely to slip into a British accent or Scottish Brogue (albeit a bad one), and I stump even the most finely tuned ear.

You should really confuse them and throw in some true Down East
High Tider brogue.
Anyone who has never heard it really needs to watch this. It's not the same as a Coastal Plains Eastern NC accent.
