Never thought about the actual physics of hearing ourselves. My issue may have more to do with being called a "sissy" so much as a kid (because I was one lol) and the pronounced Southern drawl that still slips in despite moving away over half my life ago. I think "Derek" will fill in for me nicely. I'm not sure everyone would know it wasn't real if I didn't point it out. Or maybe they would. Hard to say anymore. :-)
