No. I have pretty much given the exact reply I intended. If you have a
point to make, try to make it with actual facts. Otherwise it is just BS
that pretty much obscures the point.

This site lists the non-hyperbolic 355 from 2013. I doubt it's NRA sanctioned, or it's comprised of "liberal" statistics", or something else that makes it gooder somehow. In any case my point, (hijacked as soon as the glorious gun enters the party) was that "I remember back when" doesn't make anything right, logical, impervious to change or anything else, including factual.

Until a few years ago, I thought "comprise" meant only "compose." Then I learned it could also mean the opposite, "include." The Mac dictionary says both are correct. The 1913 Websters says only "include." The online version says both are correct. Scientists began using it to mean "compose" in the 18th Century. Nowadays, in literary writing, it usually means "compose." I see your point. It would be better to say "comprise" only for "consist of." If you mean "compose," "compose" would be the perfect word.

I'm not sure how "comprised" would be better used in the above sentence. Dropping the "of" sounds/looks wrong. I know "myriad of" always sounds wrong to me, since for many years it seemed that "of" was unnecessary, "myriad birds in the valley" not "a myriad of birds in the valley". Now that's the only way I see it used the the article before and the prepostion after. But it is interesting that after all the jabber about hyperbole regarding mass shootings being nowhere near 300 in 2013, that my citation of 355 got no response.

It's usually something like "myriad ways of" or "myriad types of", where "of" is part of the noun phrase that follows "myriad". You could replace "myriad" with an actual number, "of" would still be there. -- Barry Margolin, barmar@alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE post questions in newsgroups, not directly to me ***

So many, in fact I've begun to think my usage was off. So I figure it's almost solid "common usage" now.

That's probably because it still isn't really right: "Comprise" implies complete enumeration of the parts, e.g. the Tudor monarchs comprise Henry VII & VIII, Edward VI, Mary and Elizabeth.
