    Up is a direction relative to a reference point.

    I'd ignore whoever told you there is no "up."

    No one has told me that tom. I just used that as an example of how difficult it is to communicate with some folks. No matter what you say they will take exception to it. Why that is I do not know but I suspect it is because some folks just LOVE to disagree attack insult argue dismiss. It doesn't matter the nature or degree. They just go in to do battle. SIGH. Thank you for your reply! So. How high is up?
