Can you use Spellcraft while casting a Spell?

[AGGEMAM]

Uhh....people...try reading the spellcraft skill. It's exceedingly clear that it can be used as a reaction to someone else casting a spell. I honestly don't see what the problem is here.

Although, I agree with you, I can see it from the other perspective, as well.

It simply doesn't say either or, WotC should have included check times in the skill section for all skills, or have included a more detailed guideline.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say no, you can't use spellcraft while casting a spell. In fact, you can't even breathe. In fact, you can't even think, which could suck if you cast a really long spell, 'cause you can't think, so you can't tell yourself to breathe. 'Cause you can't breathe, you die trying to cast True Ressurection. I like this rule.
