Thank you!

We always struggle a little bit with how much to write the accent out. Laying it on too thick is just horrible, but we want to make sure the reader can "hear" it. (For those characters who have it, that is. Sherlock and Mycroft don't - they speak like the moderately wealthy, well-connected Central/Northern Virginians they actually are.)

It's very difficult to convey, without outright stating, for example, that Sherlock and John do not pronounce "Appalachian" the same way. :)
