How do you know it's affected? Is it the fact that she strikes all men as
a goddess? But of the green monster lurking behind that sideswipe? :-)

I assure you, it's not affected, it's upper class British, something you
are obviously in short acquaintance with. Her father was Chancellor of the
Exchequer (equiv., Minister of Finance) for the UK, she was educated at
Oxford. Should she behave like a chav just to please the easily
disgruntled? Of course not. She may not behave in exactly the same
fashion in private, but that is none of your bidness.

FWIW, I play wargames with a fellow who is a professor of classics at the
university here and he speaks with a full-on Oxford accent. It never
occurred to me that he was affected in any way. Perhaps I should ask him.
Can I give him your e-mail if he has any questions?
