Ok, hear this one...
I'm sitting in my school parking lot and i look up at the headliner. not something i usually do. well there are salt stains near the oh **** handles!!!!! i don't think that a sunroof leak would get over to the edge of the car without leaving a trace, so how is that water coming in! i don't want to ruin this car by letting that one go unfixed. any ideas... please....

It'* the angle your car was parked at, coupled with a plugged drain or two or three or four.
Water is allowed to leak past the seal. Then it should drain down the A and C pillars. If it can't, it overflows into the headliner.

It'* the rear drain tube from your sunroof.
It has become disconnected, and the water drains down the headliner, past the holy sh*t handle, then goes for a ride down the rear interior panel, by the back window, then ends up under the back seat. It then cascades down into the rear floor pan.
I went through the whole mess, check my post: Water water everywhere.
Now that I have re-connected my drain tubes with a small hose clamp, and am satisifed no more water is getting in, I cleaned the salt stains with carpet cleaner foam and a brush.
Drop your head liner, grab a flash light, and see if those tubes are connected!
