Default High and far

When it crosses from being in a place you might reach (up) vs a place
you cannot reach (far)?

I like the phrase though. "High and far". To me sounds like a title to a
great SF space or space travel story. Or maybe a factual early history
of spaceflight novel. If I write such a story can I have the rights to the
phrase as a title? What would you charge me? :-) Would you settle for
the credit in the 'Acknowlegements' Section?

Of course, if I was writing the book in the mid-70's it'd be about a
bicoastal trip across the USA in a VW microbus, involving a lot of
cannibis of the TH vs CB 'C' variety. :-) :-)
