"Between you and *I*"?! Ack! :::stamping feet in frustration::: That's as aggravating as the current trend I see in US reporting where folks will say "between you and myself." For heaven's sake, don't they teach the proper use of pronouns in schools today?! (I won't even start to discuss the use of "snuck" as a past tense of "sneak", because my blood pressure is high enough as it is.....)
