48%, barely Yankee! I've been here way too long!
To: SwinneySwitch
48% here, too. Odd, for someone who has lived almost his whole life within 50 miles of NYC.

I'm a native Californian... but I guess you can say I'm a southerner, since I live in Southern California.

"82% (Dixie). Did you have any Confederate ancestors?"
Aw hell, watch out ya'll! Supposedly, I am related to Sam Houston. Although, he was pro-Union (or at least anti-slavery), I believe.

68% which it says is just under the Mason-Dixon Line. Pretty close, being that I live in KY.
To: SwinneySwitch
71% (Dixie). You are a solid Southerner!
To: beeler
73% Rebel!! And BTW, anti-slavery and pro-Union are not necessarily the same thing.

78% Southern, but I had to cheat a little. There is no way on God's green earth I was gonna be a Yankee. Those are fightin words even coming from a computer program.
To: stan the beaver
True. I feel rather confident that Houston was anti-Slavery. I don't really know how he felt about succession.
