Who is the poster with the greatest post count?

Of course. There should have been a qualifier in my last post: “Who is the poster with the highest post count and the best count to quality ratio?” **

Of course this is a matter of opinion, but if solid informational content is the criterion for “quality” then David B and tomndebb would surely be among the leaders.

How about we get rid of the whole “who” problem altogether and just say:

He is the one you saw.

The best way to solve a problem is to just replace it with something easier. :slight_smile:

Better yet indeed. But I’d still like to know which is correct:

It is he you saw

 --or--

It is him you saw
ALSO:

He is who you saw
–or—
He is whom you saw
I still say the first in each instance. Anyone actually know?

Okay, I think I figgered it out. From http://www.allwords.com (a source I’m just trusting on faith :)):

So I think “It is him you saw” in the first case is correct.

So I think “He is who you saw” (the original sentence) is correct. It just looks funny.

I may be wrong, but I think I’m right. (The story of my life :))

It is [was] he whom you saw. Or He was the one you saw.
