He's the Russian behavioral psychologist who studied conditioned response. By ringing a bell just before feeding a dog he got the dog to associate the sound of the bell with eating. Pavlov demonstrated that after suitable conditioning the dog would begin to salivate when it heard the bell.

Why do you ask?

The theory goes something like this:

"I don't like the OEM tires."
"Oh? You're stupid and lacking in personal responsibility."

"I like my Mustang."
"Oh? You're stupid and Honda makes the only good car."

"Honda won't warranty my clutch."
"Oh? You're stupid and don't know how to shift."

"American Honda is the bomb!"
"Oh? You're stupid but for once you are right."
