Yeah, once you've lived here even for a little while,everyone calls you a Californian for the rest of your life. I wasn't born in CA., neither were my parents, and none of my grandparents were born in the US. I've lived out-of-state for about 14 years, (I'm 30, so that's about half my life), however even when I was away, everyone called me a Californian. I don't even have the California "accent". When my wife first met me, she thought I was a Texan, by my speaking. California & New York are hard places to shake. Alot of influences tend to melt together out here.
