For a moment I felt I was the only one that though that. Why? Unless you're doing it for hire -- or I suppose some guys just love "scanning for lifeforms?"

Honestly, I once tried feverishly to true my wheel and after days (weeks actually) of mediocre trial and error results I threw in the towel and took it to my LBS. The mechanic there did in an instant what I couldn't do in days and the wheel was tack perfect ever since.
