That reminds me of a character in one of the old Dr. Who
series. I thought this character had some sort of speach
impediment. After a few episodes I caught a few cultural
allusions made by the character and it finally dawned on me the
the character was supposed to be an _American_.
I assume that when I try to speak with a British accent I sound
just as bad to a Brit.
