Interesting. Valley seems to make more grammatical/metaphorical sense and maybe that's why the quote has been "perverted"...but upon some research it appears that the original quote does in fact use "vale".

see that is the difference: '(a)ppreciate it' is said in NC. especially the Charlotte/Piedmont area. and when i hear this anywhere it turns out they are from NC.

'ppreciate ya, i never heard in NC. Not to say that people didn't say it. just I never heard it.
