Just brainstorming here but could it be I have a clogged jet, causing that cylinder to run so lean that the fuel doesn't ignite in the cylinder but ignites in the exhaust? That might explain why the symptoms occurred so suddenly during cruise speed. The color of the plug is probably just a result of the last 600 miles running at a proper, albeit slightly rich, mixture rather than the last 20 miles to the house.
