I know this isn't the place for serious answers, but....

All the plastics in your car off-gas and some of those Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) deposit themselves on the glass. It is usually worse when you park in sunny areas. Those also collect dirt in the air as they are sticky, they also will fog easier if there is any chance of condensation.

I've heard this before, and I'm not convinced they are VOCs at all. VOCs are volatile by definition. Especially in the sun, they should vaporize. If there are any VOCs, they will typically be gone in a matter of months. Another bit of evidence that leads me to believe they aren't VOCs at all, is that the stuff on the windshield smears. VOCs shouldn't smear.

My 8 year old car still has this problem. I clean the windshield and it returns within a month or two. It's just dirt and grime from the atmosphere and you. Skin flakes, dirt, natural oils, sweat deposits, etc. I'm convinced of this.

I've never cleaned the inside of my windshield and there isn't any **** accumulated on the inside of it.

The legend is that there was a track race involving a native (I believe Tuscarora). The native was winning, but was then tripped by an audience member that wanted to ensure a white person wins. The native had then, as punishment, cursed the city.

Why is it called taking a poop? You aren't taking it anywhere. You are leaving it. (My wife came up with that one.)

That was said by Beavis of Beavis and Butthead fame, years ago. Which Mike Judge probably stole from someone who said it long before Beavis.

Re: Eternal Questions - Add yours to the list.

why does my smoke alarm only lose battery power and starting beeping every 30 seconds at 4 am? not 9 am or 6 pm, which would be convenient times. 4 am.
