-- that's odd, because my mother grew up in Lima, Peru, and when we were
travelling in Spain in the 1950's, if she didn't tell the locals about it
people were repeatedly puzzled as to _where_ she came from, and thought she
had a rather old-fashioned way of speaking (like some remote village), but the
question of social class didn't come up.
