"He is taller than me-"

Why this particular construc-
ton is incorrect is hard to ex-
plain to the average person who
is always confused by gram
NAUTICAL lingo. Dissertations on
personal pronouns of the nomi-
native case used with the various
forms of the verb ITO be" are
about as futile as trying to ex-
plain atomic f1ssion.
Since the grammarians have
never succeeded in teaching us
why We should not say He is
taller than me-" let us find a
simpler. more logical way Of
working out the problem so that
1t will stick in our minds.
To guide us to the correct
usage, here is all we need to
know:
Such sentences as He is taller
than are incomplete, al
though quite correct. When we
supply the missing word of the
sentence. the usage becomes i'm
mediately clear and we may pro-
coed without fear of making an
