Wow! She has a wicked English accent in the video. I could barely understand her. But interesting post.

Alright, you got me. Because I read your comment before watching, I spent the first 20 seconds of the video trying to actually understand her ;-)

I spent more than that before I realized it.

One time I was listening to shortwave radio (okay I had a glass of Bacardi at the time) and I quickly tuned it to a radio station and was listening to it as I did other work at the desk. 45 minutes later I ask myself "what the HECK is that guy saying!" It took me 45 minutes to realize it was German and not English.

They do say, however, if you ever wondered what English sounds like to foreigners who cannot speak English. The closest language it sounds like is German.

So, I do have that excuse to fall on.
