Sombudy is still sore over OK not be considered a part of du South.=)

But to fancy your request, I'll investigate it a bit further. I do no frum xperience that "I'll swaney" is often spoken in the deep South by older more mature Southern Belles. I imagine it is more in lines with Appalachian than Ozarkian, BUT until I have further researched the issue I'll remain neutral and grant you OK still being "culturally" southern and that this particular frase is more widespread than just the South.

SO, you get it all until I can prove that you is wrong. And I somehow feel that you are up for the challenge.=0
You don't seemed to be scared of a friendly brawl specially in the arena of idears and suthern thangs. Thanks
