Well, wikipedia says it's been around 200 years and more, so it's had plenty of time to travel :-)

Interesting article on "ain't", too.

I'm all for STANDARD English, so we can underSTAND each other, but no I'm definitely not a prescriptivist. Don't pre- (or pro-) scribe my language, and I won't pre/oscribe yours. Just make sure that (in my hearing) it's what I consider polite and understandable :-)

Cheers,
Wol
