  I recall a female co-worker complaining of a similar phenomenon.
I don't think that I ever actually heard her voice, but recalling
a telephone conversation with a British supplier, I was willing to
argue for a defence of temporary insanity on the behalf of the
accosters.

  I think it's something more specific than "British accent" --
perhaps as few as one Briton in a hundred has the exact vocalization
that melts listeners' brains on this side of the Atlantic.
