Sue and TheShu (sounds like a bad sitcom, doesn't it?) posted about an interesting dialect test. Their results reflected their home states of New York and Wisconsin, respectively.
I have never lived outside of North Carolina, so my results seem in line, too. My wife grew up in New Jersey. Is that where I got the Yankee dialect?
