Corollary: If M is an inner model of a model M' of ZFC, then the
reals of M are either (A) of measure 0, or (B) not measurable.

Question: Clearly (A) in the corollary above can be arranged by forcing the
continuum of M to become countable in a generic extension M[G]=M'.  What
about (B)?

Adding any number of random reals to M, we obtain a model 
where M\cap R is not Lebesgue measurable (and continuum as 
large as desired).
