Have you ever performed an accidental science experiment? I keep a bottle of Windex (a trademark of the Johnson) in my car. Once, while driving up a mountain (Homestake Pass, near Butte, Montana), I detected a strong smell of Windex. I looked down, and saw that the Windex was squirting out of the squirt bottle, in a steady stream. Of course, there was a lower pressure outside the bottle, and the pressure was equalizing.
And my car smelled really clean.
