Thou doth protest too much

FYI to Mavic: the tone fo your response to Velonews' article on wheel failure leads me to believe Mavic is confusing the validity of deductive and inductive research.

In otherwards, Mavic isn't looking for evidence to determine why the wheel broke (inductive). Rather, it has a model of how it could have been caused by an outside force and is looking for "facts" that confirm this bias (deductive).
