Too true, B :waves at fellow Kentuckian:  Even now, I still have to 
stop myself when I'm talking about those particular cities and 
pronounce them the way they would there--I want to pronounce them the 
way they *should* be pronounced <g>

I live in Charleston, SC & the accent here (at least among the 
natives) is to say the least, interesting.  
Charleston is Chahston
Cooper is Kupper (it's the river that, along with the Ashley, flows 
together to form the Atlantic Ocean, according to Charlestonians)

Geography question:  What's the capitol of Kentucky? 

Peace & Plenty,

Parker

PS: B, where are you from?  I'm from Murray.
