  1. Mark and I just uncovered this gem:

    Present Perfect Progressive

    To express duration of an acton that began in the past, has continued into the present, and may continue into the future

    *

    David has been working for two hours, and he hasn't finished yet.

    I prefer to call it the implied future past tense.
