Abstract
A local interior-exterior distinction is formulated for matching across a hypersurface, and detailed examples are given for spherical dust flows. While the "inside" vs "outside" character is not, in general, globally preserved, the distinction is unambiguous in an region, and does afford clarification of certain boundary surfaces and surface densities discussed in the literature.
