Heh - you try being educated in the Quebecois patois that goes for French,
and then having to speak to a Parisian. :)

I've got an english accent on top of a Quebecois accent - imagine talking
to a russian who learned his english in backwoods Kentucky, and you've got
the idea.

I've actually seen Parisians wince in pain when I fire up the ol francais.
