Why does it seem like they lose their accent when they get older?
Older people from California have a *regular accent* "every body
Older people from New York have a *regular* accent* "James Brown"
But down in the south, older people still have that southern accent.
Bernard Hopkins don't sound like the younger philly people, James Brown definitely don't sound like the younger NY people, etc.
:whoo:
