Figuratively, it stands to reason, extensive \"skies\" or \"skylines\" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2003-06-29 15:45:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See Random House Dictionary on \"skyline\": sky·line (sk#Æl#nÅ), n., v., -lined, -lin·ing. –n. Also, skyÆ lineÅ. 1. the boundary line between earth and sky; the apparent horizon: A sail appeared against the skyline. 2. the outline of something, as the buildings of a city, against the sky: the New York skyline. –v.t. 3. to outline (something) against the sky. [1855–60; SKY + LINE1] -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2003-06-29 15:45:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Particularly in the first meaning, I would imagine. |
