How strange- the one profile which I technically fit (Midwestern) shows up as 0% on this linguistic test! Yet, I'm 10% dixie, 5% upper midwestern & 5% yankee. Either this test is a bunch of hooey, or I'm one strange bird who walks & talks to the beat of my own drum (m-hmm)

I got the same results...
Yeah, I'm a yankee....
55% General American English
30% Yankee
15% Dixie
0% Midwestern
0% Upper Midwestern
This reminds me of a poll that was up on slashdot a while back:
When Answering Questionaires:
a. I Lie
b. I tell the truth
c. I never answer these things.
