This tiny man may hold the key to man's future on earth. We should clone him - we could feed maybe 20 billion 26-inch humans for less than what it takes to support the 7 billion or so full sized humans we have now.

It would make construction cheaper, too - a 100 story building could be 60% shorter. That's a lot less concrete and steel.

Getting humans to the moon again, or even Mars, would be easier. He could probably fit inside the same capsule that delivered the Rovers.

Imagine how cheap transportation would be. You could commute to work on one of those little kid's rechargeable Barbie cars. A regular 747 could fit a couple thousand wee-mans.

Unfortunately, man would lose a great war to a swarm of raccoons, house cats, and large birds. It'd be like trying to coexist with dinosaurs.

 
Good point. If I were still alive and there were thousands of tiny women everywhere, I'd be huge! Maybe this is the start of my career in Playgirl? Would midget porn be considered normal porn?
