If CJ can not get you to understand, I don't see anyone who can get through you whatchadoin. This linguistic instinct can not be passed on to someone, nor taught. I've reading your posts. Observations tell me that this instinct still eludes you. I wish I could help. All I can say is, in order for you to utilize the tenses correctly, you must develop the speaker's perspective, be it past, present
