If two empty regions of space-time are entirely separated by matter, little information of the nature of one region can be gained by knowledge of the other. Examples of a hollow Schwarzschild sphere and a hollow static torus are considered. In the first of these, it is shown that the size of the flat interior is not at all limited by the smallness of the Schwarzschild mass constant, the other spherical boundary, or the condition that the sphere be constructed only of matter of positive density with positive stress-energy scalar.
