Labov and The Atlas of North American English
Nice piece in the times today about linguistic (phonetic) tourism.
"It's Not the Sights, It's the Sounds" by Tim Sultan (yes, in the Travel section).
He discusses Labov and The Atlas of North American English and gives lots of fun examples of regional speech.
