it also helps to remember that "whom" always follows a prepositional phrase.
Not quite. See me post, sent before I read this one, where I use the sentence: "She and me, whom she hates, went to the park." (It was something like that.) The sentence is incorrect grammatically, but not because of the "whom she despises" part. "Whom" is simply the objective form of "who." It does not require a preposition. This is getting out of hand, isn't it? mars@pe.net +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
