Silhouette: If you define speaking perfect English = speaking without an accent, you just joined Brainjuice in his Wankers' club. Congratulations... And by the way, who is feeling inferior here ? I would say it's those beding over backwards to imitate something that is not naturally theirs. Fug the accent, just speak the way everyone understands you... My Scottish friends don't seem to be learning American accent even though they have to repeat them a few times in few occasions..
