Me or Myself
What is correct usage:
In addition to Mike, Margit and myself, ...
In addition to Mike, Margit and me, ...
I find "myself" replacing "me" incorrectly all the time (don't hesitiate to call Brenda or myself). In this particular case though, I can't seem to distinguish what is correct.

Many consider the use of the reflexive here improper, reserving it for emphasis ('I myself do not like the decision!'), but the fact is that it has become acceptable in this usage, and occurs widely. You will never be considered incorrect if you use the object pronoun 'me', however.
