Yes, but those in India or Pakistan, could have (poor) Dutch speaking
employees.  I know immediately that those calls I get, even though in English,
are not originating anyplace that has native English speakers   You can
barely make out that it is English they are trying to speak.  I also like the
fake names   My name is Fred.  Too bad I cannot reproduce the bad language
and accent in writing :)

Are you getting the same lousy English accents as we are from thoe Microsoft
