Very good. You did a good interview.

I thought it was a strange pan down of the camera @ around 19 minutes.

Well done. I liked the way you answered the question about education. I get that once in a while and most people are surprised to find out that I don't have a degree.

Nicely done Don. That instrument looked new instead of being 10 years old. It shows you take pride in your work and equipment.

Surveyor on TV-The Accent issue

I'm not really from here. I was moved here from North Dakota at 11 in 1968. My mother is from southern Ga. My accent is nothing unless I hang out with a southerner. Then its all southern, cause its the right way to talk, cept for yankee 🙂

Good job Don

You talk with a northern Mass accent, but at the speed of a southerner. Pretty scary.

Good Job Don,
I have no idea how anybody can call that an accent.

Cheers

Yeah, I don't get it either, I always figure I have a mumbling kind of accent.

Don

Where I live, I don't have an accent either, but you would think I do.
Have a daughter schooling in Boston. She's beginning to sound like you.

There are some good schools in Boston, lucky girl! 🙂

I do acquire a southern accent when I'm around my mother, or others with a southern accent. I don't "pahk the cah" or have "idear's" like Bostonians do....

Maybe if you would stop and pahk and come up with a few idears once in a while you might become a more well-rounded surveyor. Just a thought. 😉

I was pretty well rounded, but I've been working on reducing that roundness!
