Okay, I might have a winner here: You know the big 4x10 vehicle plate
with the "seat" in the middle? It's shaped like this from the top: |-[]-|
Well, for the last fifteen years, one of mine--a white one--has had a very old
yellow 2x2 plate stuck in the 2x2 depression in the middle. I could probably
get it out with a knife, but I haven't had much need to, and I'm sure I would
hurt myself unless I used my teeth somehow. It's an impossible extraction job,
even worse than getting a 2x2 plate out of the tapered forward hull piece from
the Explorien Starship. :(
