The Secret of Jovian Gas Music

No secret, really -- it's just an old, inside joke. Here's the story:

Once upon a time, a female friend of mine tried to fix me up with a "cosmic" roommate of hers who happened to have a cosmic little New Age newspaper that she edited and ran by herself. When we met, it was under the premise that I was looking to advertise in her little 'zine. Now, no offense to any New Agers out there, but I'd had about all the New Age stuff I could handle at the time. Well, cosmic girl noticed all my deep space photographs hanging about the beach studio and assumed that I was cosmic like her. Bzzzt!!! Sorry, no... Actually, I'm just an outer space fanatic. When we got around to wording the advert, she asked what kind of music I taught. Always the smart-ass, I replied "Jovian Gas Music." (Sounds a bit New Agey, no?)

Three days later, the ad appeared, and there it was:
    "Dr Zyg, a master of Jovian Gas Music..."
