I wasn't criticizing Nancy for being wrong; I was criticizing her for ignoring part of what someone said. That counts as being anti-social too, so it's not an issue of "wrong vs. anti-social"; it's anti-social vs. anti-social.

So, why is the anti-sociality of ignoring someone's comment while pretending to reply to it worse than the anti-sociality of saying that someone, er, did that?

Also, would it be rude to point out that you also just did what I'm accusing Nancy of doing? ;-)
