Haha. I saw that one too. Thought it was a wind-up at first, but apparently
not. Still, many Americans seem to believe Australians have British accents,
so I guess their definitions encompass a wide variety of speech patterns. I
still don't know what a 'British accent' *is* anyway - never met anyone who
had one.
