Thanks Vincente,
As always you make good points. Perhaps I just hope it is not true. Accents give such wonderful variety and interest to conversations it would be a shame to lose them.
Your point regarding Lower Rio Grand Valley is an excellent example. Would Johnny Rodriguez be as intersting to listen to without the accent? Would All in the Family or George Lopez be as funny without the accents? How about the Sopranos or Laverne and Shirley. In my opinion I hope accents never fade away.
