we don't consider it 'correct' now

I do, in contexts where it's the dominant usage. Which is a limited set of contexts, but they exist.

Of course there are people who believe that there's only one correct version of English, and that any variation on that, be it dialect, argot or whatever, is essentially wrong, but I find that a pretty narrow and unappealing intellectual position.
