79% Pink neck.

Interesting. 43% barely Yankee.

I was born in NYC, raised in MD and live in Virginia. Still wanna stay a Yankee, but some of the south creeps in over time. :)

The buggy question cracked me up. Moved South at tender age of five and converted from cart to buggy despite Mom's best efforts. Just couldn't help it.

I do still say "pop" instead of Coke, which down here represents all carbonated-type beverages.

74% Dixie. I live in Maryland just south of the Mason-Dixion Line, but have made most of my travels down south or out west. Not much up north. So, it say's I am a "pink neck".

63% (Dixie). Just under the Mason-Dixon Line -- considering I've lived all over the US, I guess the old saying is true "you can take the girl out of the South but you can't take the South out of the girl".

That was fun. Scored 46% Yankee (barely). Born, raised and still live in Southeastern Pennsylvania.

39% (Yankee). You are definitely a Yankee.

Definately Yankee--interesting since I was born and raised in the UK and live in CA.

I'm 47% Yankee. I think that's mostly from the waist down.
