A puzzle for you to play with:

	A hole six inches long is drilled clear through the center of a
	solid sphere.  What is the volume of the material remaining?

	After getting your answer (and I haven't left anything out),
	try to give a physical explanation and/or interpretation of
	the suprising result.
