Ha...I interchangeably refer it to it as The Confederate War or The War of Northern Aggression...usually the latter, actually. But you have to say it with the proper Southern accent or it just ruins it. "Tha Waaaw of Nawthan Ahhgrayusshun" is kinda-sorta how it should sound.
Heh, the funny thing is that particular accent, dying out in the South, is in high demand in England. It is how the nobility over there used to sound before Received Pronunciation.

Oh, it's still alive and well in this part of South Carolina. I get told daily by other Southerners I have that old Southern drawl all the time. Of course I take it as a compliment.
Too bad we don't have the capability of uploading soundbites here so we could hear what all of us sound like.
