>I personally like the irregularity of English, and would use "dreamt" over "dreamed" anytime, or "yclept" over "cleped," or "dove" over "dived."

I'd love to know in what context you've had the chance to use "yclept" in conversation. When I was at university I ended up thinking in Middle English half the time, especially around exams when I wasn't getting much sleep. I sometimes found myself using words and phrases in conversation that tended to make people think I was either insane or had just fallen out of a time warp somewhere. Maybe both.
