ignoring

ignoring ‎(plural ignorings)

The act by which something is ignored.
- 1999, David Lewis, Papers in Metaphysics and Epistemology (volume 2, page 437)
  We ignore various far-fetched possibilities, as hard-headed detectives should. But S does not ignore them. S is by profession a sceptical epistemologist. He never ignores much of anything. If it is our own ignorings that matter, then we are wrong, because S never knew much of anything.
