The 95th Percentile
My favorite line from the story: "Justice Margaret Eberhard must weigh the evidence, including the plastic model." I can just picture it now, trying it on for size, exclaiming, "Oh, this is nothing!"
The article says those measurements are in a "semi-relaxed" state, whatever that means. Sounds to me like it gets bigger.
"Sounds big, but not that big, especially in proportion to his height."
Seems like the relevant comparison is not to his height, but to the size of where it had to go.
