@revolutionLOV3 yes, indeed! We used to be more or less very "Southern", but we have people from all over today living here, esp in NOVA. Its kinda sad, though. I loved hearing my grandparents talk. It seems the same way in the carolinas and georgia when I was there too. Not a trace of accent in anyone under 50.
I'm writing a story in which the main character grew up in upstate New York, so I've been trying to figure out how he might sound. This was incredibly helpful!
Lol I'm from Chatham, New York. 45 minutes from Albany. You have the EXACT same voice and accent as me! I live in Texas now and everyone looks at my like I'm from a foreign country,

@VASINGER My friend from college is from VA. He sounds, more or less, the same as me, so I understand what you mean.
