pardon, i meant was can be substituted for were now. The rest of my grammatic errors were left on purpose.

Everyone here is discussing what is correct and what is incorrect about using was instead of were in a sentence. Are you all stupid?

The English teachers in the days of Shakespeare would turn over in their graves at the what you consider proper/correct english.

Things change. What was incorrect at one time is now considered correct now, and in 200 years our English will be old and thrust aside. (It won't matter, you and I will be dead by then anyway.)

Some of you just can't stand to see that some of the rules you were taught are being changed right before your eyes and not after you are long gone.

Well, GET OVER IT! It happens, and is happening. Were can now be substituted for Were, and it just isn't incorrect anymore. Just because you learned it one way, does not mean it is still correct.

I bet you learned that wireless telephones are impossible too?
