Where is your accent from?

I was reading a friend's blog writersblock, and saw an interesting link to a quiz that will reveal to you what American accent you have. I was pleased to see that, as I thought, I have no accent! :-) Or more accurately one described as "the midland" accent.
My results were as follows:
What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland
 

"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

Give it a try and see what your accent is. It only takes about a minute or two and it seems to be accurate so far.

I'm with you - evidently from the "midland" - which apparently includes California! Fun quiz though.
