This is fascinating me, because it is pegging people really well (except arliss!), and this type of quiz is usually a lot vaguer. I think of myself as speaking pretty standard American english, partly because this is where I've lived: 0-3 Cincinnati, 4-6 outside of Pittburgh, 6-10 rural Maine, 10-13, suburban Boston, 14-18 suburban CT, 19-22 suburban Philadelphia, 23-28 Cincinnati, 28-30 rural CT, 30-34 triangle NC; also sojourns in Athens Greece and Washington DC. You can't even go by my parents, really, since my father was raised in Cincinnati by a mother from Boston and a father from Pittsburgh, and my mother was a navy brat (Annapolis, Boston, Cincinnati, DC) with a mother from Annapolis and a father from Boston.

(Relatedly, it occurred to me last night that I have never lived in the US outside of the EST zone, and to do so would kind of freak me out! Weird TV! Other people awake in the mornings before me!)
