I'm currently on a train. That train's departure is MODERATE ENGLISH and the destination is STRONG ENGLISH. Are you a passenger or an engine-driver of just the same train? Wow! Then we could cheat the journey with a conversation ;) ------------- Skype chats are preferred.

    conditional-2 without condition? I bumped into the following sentences at wikipedia: "Capone apologized to Gallucio at Yale's request and would hire his attacker as a bodyguard in later life." "When photographed, Capone hid the scarred left side of his face and would misrepresent his injuries as war wounds." Could anybody explain why is it "would ..." used here? The construction of the sentences is similar to conditional-2 but I don't see any condition at the same time. Or are those author's mistakes?
