Loads of people are lousy at accents. Foreign and domestic.

On one trip to Europe I discovered a skill a lot of people don't have, translating English in one foreign accent for people with a diffent one. And most of them couldn't identify the accents either. I can.
There's US citizens out there who can't tell some southern accents from a northern one, much less tell a Scot from an Irishman, much less know the difference between someone from Norhtern Ireland and Ireland.
