>Just to play devil's advocate ( pays better than prosecutor ) if one considers "John and I in complete agreement" to be a noun clause defining a state or condition " John and I (being) in complete agreement " then the objective case wouldn't really be correct. Without the implied "being" or the "in complete agreement", of course, it's John and me he'd be talking about ( oops, a preposition is a bad word to end a sentence with )
