Interesting link:The Speech Accent Archive

The speech accent archive uniformly presents a large set of speech samples from a variety of language backgrounds. Native and non-native speakers of English read the same paragraph and are carefully transcribed. The archive is used by people who wish to compare and analyze the accents of different English speakers.

Once again the collective wisdom here at the VO-BB leaves me in awe. Just amazing. Thanks for posting these links.
