In the case of a car whose rest length is greater than the length of the 
garage, from pov of the garage, the car *will fit inside* if its speed is 
sufficient fast due to length contraction of the car. But from the pov of 
the moving car, the length of garage will contract, as close to zero as one 
desires as its velocity approaches c, so the car *will NOT fit* *inside* 
the garage. Someone posted a link to an article which claimed, without 
proof, that this apparent contradiction can be resolved by the fact that 
simultaneity is frame dependent. I don't see how disagreements of 
simultaneity between frames solves this apparent paradox. AG
