There is obviously a campaign afoot to interchange the imperfect tense of certain verbs with the participle form of the perfect tense.
It all seems to point in the direction that the Irish are ahead of the posse. After all many of us say 'I done' and 'I have went'.
Is this the relativism that Pope Benedict opposes?
