That's kinda funny, b/c I'm from the Midwest.... I wonder if maybe they mean rural Midwest? Of course, they didn't ask how I pronounce "44" (in St. Louis, it's something to the effect of "farty-far".... people from KC & rural MO down here have commented on how i have long A's.... very long A's. for example, "mom" would sound a little bit closer to "mahm")
