On a completely different note, and not even remotely as helpful to those
that do have thick accents and would like to correct them.  It'd be fun to
see a class on getting an accent rather then losing one.

Even US regions would be fun.  It'd be pretty slick if you could just drop
into a aussie accent from down under, or irish accent on queue.  :)
