John. My folks are living proof that southern people do tolerate Yankees and at
times even accept Yankees. They moved off their sailboat of 27 years and now
live in Morehead City, NC. They were from western NY.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Where you are from really does not seem to be important here as
mastering<BR>the proper attitude. They are naturalizing immigrants every
day.<BR><BR>It really speeds up the process if you understand the two syllable
words<BR>like "Ya-Us" (yes) and "ME-Yun" (men). It is best that you listen
quite a<BR>while before attempting to reproduce the pronunciation. It is
really<BR>offensive if executed poorly.<BR><BR>I have been politely informed
on several occasions that Southerners speak<BR>slowly and listen slower. And
that I am to consider that any time I speak.<BR>I am not sure I should share
the secret but I have also been told that the<BR>main reason for the Southern
talk is because the Yankees find it so<BR>annoying.<BR><BR>I have figured out
on my own that their main use for me is to attend<BR>meetings where there will
be other coarse and crass Yankees to assure that<BR>their points will be made.
It works.<BR><BR>In time I expect to be fully assimilated and a fresh Yankee
will be needed<BR>to serve that function. I have no proof, but I think the
honeysuckle flowers<BR>have something to do with it!<BR><BR>Did you know that
the city of Cary, NC is really an acronym?<BR><BR>It stands for "Containment
Area for Relocated Yankees"!<BR><BR>John Ferrell<BR>6241 Phillippi
