<DIV>I don't believe there is any halachic source that defines "above" this
way. Anyway, center of what? A line between the center of earth and
you -- even if you're standing on a distant planet or star? Maybe if you
went to Mars, "above" would be the extension of a line between the center of
Mars and you? Or would it always be the extended line from the center
of earth, no matter where else in the universe you were?</DIV>
