What does "I was JUST commenting on your claim" mean, in your usage,
if it doesn't mean that you were commenting on something *I* --
not someone else in the discussion -- said?
(Yeah, yeah, very old post, probably ought to just let this one go,

Huh. Well, maybe you get a better, or at least different, class
