I haven't done any voting myself (but thanks for naturally assuming), but if I would venture a guess, it would be that your reply was considered off topic and that it added nothing to the discussion.

Fair enough, and I apologize for making such an outrageous assumption. In fairness, I think I may have misread the tone of your original post and was a little miffed. (Not appropriate, but we all make mistakes--mine are just more regular than they ought to be.)

I do appreciate the subtle tongue-in-cheek reference, though (I chuckled). +1.
