Here are the two most interesting observations from Trust But Verify (which provides the best coverage of Floyd Landis’ hearings):

Most people, including me, did not get the importance of the methodological peak identification problems that Brenna nearly perjured himself to try to bury. LNDD has a designed-in mistake in their SOP for IRMS that is common among all tests they have ever run. They don’t run a calibration mix that includes the 5a, 5b, and pdiols, so they can’t identify peaks in the IRMS correctly, or in conformance with the ISL IDCR — creating an ISL violation on any AAF they have ever declared on 5a or 5b – pdiol. This is a disaster for LNDD and whoever has said their procedure was correct — including Brenna, Ayotte, Catlin, Aquilera, and Botre.

Lemond should never have been allowed to testify, and his testimony was probably allowed in to punish Landis for the Will-provoked circus. There are hanging legal issues to be explored whether Lemond’s refusal to answer Armstrong questions was proper.
