Anyone else hear other songs within Pearl Jam songs?

Ok, am I the only one that hears Bob Dylan's Blowing in the Wind at minute mark 1:57 in Eddie Vedder's Society?

I'm not claiming that Eddie ripped this off, was influenced by it, did it on purpose, or did it by accident. I was just wondering if anyone else keeps hearing Bob during this song. I heard this song a few times live over the past week and every time I find myself singing The answer my friend is blowing in the wind. It's not exact rhythmically, but melodically, it's pretty close.

Am I the only one?

    Pretty sure I know what you are talking about, though it is a cover, so I'm not sure if that's from the original version, too.

    Yeah...Society is a cover, so that's tough. However, I absolutely hear Going to California in Given to Fly. The vocal melody is very similar.
