Well, that's good to hear. Now I can officially correct the people who refer to a sunroof as a moonroof. I actually hear it quite often. Maybe that's why I always figured it was just a matter of preference.

My mom liked to call hers a moonroof. I thought it was dumb but she thought it was clever and insisted on calling it that every chance she got lol

I took that reference of Marc as him being the "expert" on the explanation how it was named "moon roof" in the 70s. Of course, that was 35+ years ago...how old is Marc?
