(Wth, thought I replied earlier, where'd it go?)

Thanks, this makes a lot more sense. I may be wrong, but I also think こと can be used with names? What does it mean in that case? If it's just "in Mr. X's case, ..." what distinguishes it from は／が?

Edit: what the HELL.. I posted, it wasn't there, now I wrote a new reply and the old one came back too.. Dammit. Time to check the caching settings, I think.
