[quote=Anonymous]So, I'm in the Richmond area. There are so many transplants here now that it's tough to really hear the old time southern accent - it does appear though at times especially if you get into some of the spots were some of the long time Richmond residents are congregating. I hear it a lot after church services when in the coffee and donut line, lol. My kids were born here and do have a few words they say that come across in a more southern way. I grew up in Pittsburgh and my Western PA accent has diminished over time but does regain strength when I am back there. Just an aside, my daughter picked out that Curt Cignetti, the Indiana U football coach, was from Pittsburgh as soon as she heard him talk. She said he sounded just like her great Uncle! Unc is a true Pittsburgher! [/quote]
