No, most gravy boats wouldn't fit in an average sized can, which would therefore be an inappropriate storage solution.

How do you model data?

Do you mean Data, the fictional android from Star Trek TNG, or the technopop band from Norway? I suppose both are roughly humanoid so clay should work!

I was watching the tour de France recently and it struck me that bicycles are excellent in terms of space taken up on the road. You can get so many of those racers in a group! So why don't we make cars all bicycle sized? They'd need to use a motor instead of having to pedal them, obviously - otherwise drivers could just use a bicycle!

Congestion problems would be a thing of the past!

As we all know cars are bigger than bicycles, so if we made cars bicycle sized bicycles would then be too tiny to ride, which would become a problem, especially because then we'd recalibrate the meaning of bicycle size, shrink all the cars again, and thus personal transport would be entirely unuseable.

How can I set a congestion charge for my sinuses so my current illness has to pay me money for clogging them up?
