Sinister: She and me

[Mark Iles]

	Someone was asking why yu couldn't use 'she and me' in a sentence.
I think it's because the two words are different declensions (is that the
word?). So you can say 'she and I' (as in 'she and I are both wearing
cardigans') or 'her and me' (as in 'Stuart Murdoch gives both her and me
palpitations'). Errr... dull post this, isn't it.
