Is it me, or when people talk about continuity errors do they often seem to be referring to things that aren't really continuity errors, like a) Failing to refer to an event when they think it should have been referred to, or b) Having a character behave differently from the way they think he should behave? I get annoyed by those things too, but I think a real continuity error is something like saying two characters never met before when they did.
