No, I only said that to annoy the crackpot.

In general they are not, and don't have any irredentist claim to 
Mendoza. However, many inhabitants of Mendoza still sound like Chileans 
when they speak. Once in Oviedo we were in a museum attached to the 
Cathedral, and my wife commented that she thought we knew a group of 
people nearby and that they were Argentinian. So I went to listen and 
came back to say that they sounded more Chilean to me than Argentinian. 
Yes, she said, that's because they're from Mendoza. If Argentina lost 
Mendoza it would put paid to the notion that Argentina is a major 
wine-producing country. (OK, there are other regions, but Mendoza is 
the important one.)

If you want to know about irredentist claims, check out Bolivia and, to 
a lesser extent, Peru: they are still sore about losing the War of the 
Pacific in 1879. Bolivians claim that all their problems result from 
lack of access to the sea.

The War of the Pacific is like the War of 1812 in the sense that no one 
outside the three countries mentioned has heard of it. No one outside 
Canada and the USA has heard of the War of 1812. Americans tend to 
forget why it was fought, who won, and that the President of the USA 
(James Madison) ran away from the Battle of Bladensburg.
