I had a high school history teacher who spent the entire year teaching us to develop "casual" accounts of various historical events: Civil War, WWII, etc. I was confused why we should be nonchalant about such important events, but kept my puzzlement to myself. Eventually I realized she was misreading the word "causal".

Isn't the whole idea of civility that you be civil with your enemies/ops/those who have "wronged" you? You make peace with your enemies, not your friends, right?
