Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. Takes one to know one so, likewise I'm sure.

Oops, showing my uneducated side.

"and I suppose the 2000 boards you've posted on makes you real fresh here."

No, MYRIAD boards, 2000 wise guys. Read carefully.

Y'all have a good evening.

Myriad is both a noun and an adjective. It is correct to say "a myriad of" something.

The noun is, in fact, the form in which it was first used in English and was used by Milton, Thoreau etc. In the 19th century poets began using it as an adjective...as this was where it was most frequently used, some people began to believe this was the only correct form. Any usage guide says both noun and adjective is considered correct.

So...who among the myriad of posters on these myriad boards is ejumakated here?
