Bill--
I have never met Mr. Bernouli and when I said that pressure inside the car
"increased" it would indeed have been more accurate to say that pressure
outside decreased due to the air molecules' having to travel a greater
distance, creating lift.. Fortunately the magnets' force is stronger than
the lift and my side curtains no longer pop out at highway speeds.
