Summary: 

[What you can't eat can't hurt you]

	Since Maia COULD fly when she became honey bees, and her leaves
didn't plunge to the ground when she became ordinary house plants,
the conservation of mass wasn't in her physics book.  So....

	How about some applied TARDIS technology?  (Don't get on my
case, Who-ites, I know this isn't exactly 100% right.)

	Maia projects herself into a fourth dimension, and then
reprojects herself into this dimension with altered size and mass.  This
also conveniently explains how her considerable intelligence would fit
into those tiny, tiny brains (well, not really, but pretend it does).

	She DID believe in conversation of life (she couldn't change
into anything which wasn't living, even if she thought it was).  That I
CAN'T fathom.
