Easy way to remember can be to think if the answer to the question is him or he.

If it's hiM, use whoM
If it's he (no M), use who.

That's how I determine.

all that is fine but why do other posters on this forum call you "shaven"?

Rashmun - stop your harassing behavior. You asked me once, I ignored. You asking me again, I'm telling you to back off. I don't want to see you posting the same question on every thread after my post.

>>>Honestly, this has always been a problem for me. Usually, I end up using 'who'. It doesn't bother most people since they probably don't know either. Heck, most of them are still fighting the bring/take battle and at least some have the who/which dilemma. I will pose the question to my older though. He still has the bring/take confusion, but nevertheless prides himself on these types of grammar issues.

>>>On those rare occasions I use them, it is usually when I list a bunch of things after a colon. The semi-colon serves to separate the listed items.
