Come to think about it, your own location would have a huge part of it in determining how well you'll understand other accents.
Such as where I live, north-western PA, we are said to have the most non-accented speach in the US. So we are able to pick up differences in speech from others, and might have a higher chance of not understanding it since we dont get much practice at it.
Its just a theory, and not a excuse for what the article is about.
