If you had known her you could almost certainly appreciate how funny it really was. Her beliefs were strongly held but also extremely personal for her. If you asked, she'd tell you, but otherwise I don't know that I ever heard her offer anyone an opinion unsolicited. A quiet woman, very reserved, rail-thin, and her version of harsh criticism was closing her eyes & shaking her head slowly (and even that only briefly). So for her to set a JW straight was pretty much surreal.
