You decide. :)
You misread mine. "Of course" was used as a conjunction, nothing more. I could have said "however" or "but then" or any number of others. Had I meant "of course" as a way to agree with Simon, (1) I would still have needed a subordinating conjunction to introduce the subsequent dependent clause; and (2) I would have needed a semicolon instead of a comma since "of course" would have been a complete thought.
