Did you catch the question on the liturgy? Arroyo asked about ad orientem and whether there were plans to restore it to the Novus Ordo liturgy!

"Did you catch the question on the liturgy?"
I had trouble following him on that. I must have blanked out. It seems to me he said something positive about ad orientum. I also missed the indult answer.
Can you fill me in?

Arroyo asked about ad orientem and whether there were plans to restore it to the Novus Ordo liturgy! Wasn't it in the context of "do you think it would be a good idea" and also Arroyo asked about a restoration of some Latin in the Novus Ordo (also posed as a question in the "good idea" vein). Ratzinger replied that both "would be helpful" but said that the Mass should be in the vernacular with some Latin to make the Mass the same in all parts of the world. Unless I misunderstood? Like I said, whole lot of noise in my house and that accent you could cut with a knife!
