I scored a 29 too
The native English speakers were pretty easy (except for the South African and I mistook the Chicagoan for a Canadian) but the non-English speakers were so hard.

37.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

Actually the Brummie didn't sound particularly Brummie at all...although I managed to identify the Canadian and the South African...I had difficulty with all the piddling Eastern European countries...the Western ones gave me no difficulty (except the Spanish bloke sounded more Portuguese to me)Speaking of Erith:

Anyone who identified that man's accent as Canadian should have minus points. It wasn't Canadian. I'm still pissed about that."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
