D'oh! Now I've gone 'n done it!
My office sits in a river valley and I have to climb to the top on the way home every day. That's why I'm convinced it's the climbing that's hurting the wheel. That and the fact that the last one went as I stood up to take a hill, *poing* I heard it let go. That one was on the nipple.
I try to focus on cadence and gear down as needed, but I'm always pushing for better time and so stay in as big a gear as I can turn at 90 or so.
Also, I have around 2000 miles on the thing. Really, I'm putting a hard commute on a bike that was made to fit a price-point. I will be very glad to get the new wheelset on; but I'm sure it will be a while before I stop looking down to see if I'm wobbling again.
