A businessman arriving in Boston for a convention found that his first evening was free, and he decided to go find a good seafood restaurant that served Scrod, a Massachusetts specialty. Getting into a taxi, he asked the cab driver, Do you know where I can get Scrod around here? Sure, said the cabdriver. I know a few places... but I can tell you it's not often I hear someone use the third-person pluperfect indicative anymore!
