I usually say 'soda pop,' which used to drive my Florida-born friends up the wall because they referred to anything carbonated as "Coke" whether it was Coca-Cola or not.

Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

I got The Midland, too. Followed, in order, by The South, Philadelphia, The Inland North, The Northeast , The West, Boston, North Central. Since I was born & primarily raised in MIssiouri, I guess the Midland works. Even if I always thought it was the Midwest. *g*

I, on the other hand, am a Texan. :-) But I live in Houston, as we're about as cosmopolitan as you can get. :-) I can turn on the "Bubba Voice", but it's not my normal way of speaking.

Well, unless ah'm tryin' t'mess with yor head, acourse. :-)

Well, I suppose mine is correct, since I have lived all over the western US--Washington, Idaho, Oregon, California, Montana, etc...)
