Drove from Denver to Vail last month, about 100 miles, and did the exact same thing. Had some chill mix going and kept hitting skip, then I put on Nirvana's Nevermind straight through and it was night and day. By the time Lithium came on I had the windows down and the volume at like 28, just fully in it instead of waiting for a good part. When you know the whole album you ride the ups and downs with it instead of grabbing for the next thing.

Wondering if a grocery store rant is really the best place to get your space science facts, even if the guy happened to land on a decent point about dust. One random link that lines up with a half remembered detail doesn't really settle a debate that's been going for fifty plus years. It's fine to keep an open mind, but let's not act like the checkout line is where the truth comes out.
