Wounded by the savage attack upon me by the boyo from the valleys, I have managed to upload my rebuttal. If your shellikes have never been blessed with the ecstatic experience of hearing the most mellifluous national accent in the history of sentience, here's your chance: http://snurl.com/1v2y MP3 -123KB http://snurl.com/1v30 WAV - 393KB

It was a crack - I'm recovering from a bronchial cold, and my voice is even more melodious than usual as a result. However, the inflection itself was intentional, designed to convey bewilderment (or, as said in Zildish, bewuld(schwa)ment).

What inflection means
Well, I was assuming it meant a change in pitch or tone, that sort of thing. That was done intentionally, but, as happens with disconcerting frequency for me, my voice cracked as well. So, it was a crack, and the inflection was intentional, at least seen in the light of my neuron's substandard grasp of English.
