Yay! I'm happy that "drawl" and "soda" work! :-) It's interesting that "coke" and "soda" are interchangeable in the South. If someone asked me what kind of coke I wanted, I'd probably say Coke Zero or Diet Coke, which would actually work out just fine, I guess. *g*

I'd forgotten that Ben Browder/Cameron Mitchell has a Southern accent going on. If I ever have Mitchell appear in a fic, I'll be sure to write that he has a Southern drawl. And, hey, maybe I could even work in the collards and glass of sweet tea. ;-)
