Local Revision: Tense Usage

   My QRG is unbalanced in its usage of tense.  I focus heavily on the present and future.

	Disprove- 5  Found- 2  Create- 2	Would- 10  Could- 3

   The use of the past and future tenses make the controversy seem more alive while past tense is used to show background.  I feel that the tense changes flow naturally and none of my peer reviewers have commented on them.  I may slightly overuse the future tense, especially the word would.
