Yes, I had tidiness considerations too. :)

Lived in Missouri, USA until I was 6, then lived in Minneapolis, Minnesota,
USA until 9 months ago. I don't have the Minnesota accent (as heard in
the movie *Fargo*--it really is like that) and I don't have the Missouri
low-caste twang, either. Now I live in San Francisco, and my speech is not
considered strange.
