Travis just said he thought Lake Ontario was a nice component of Toronto's skyline... well, yes, it is. Mountains are, as well. Can anyone tell me with a straight face they actually don't think Mount Fuji is a part of Tokyo's skyline...? Seriously?

I think they make a nice backdrop for a skyline and a pretty setting, but I think of the skyline as the collection of buildings. Besides, the mountains, ocean, lakes etc, aren't visible from every angle the skyline is.
I just think we should keep it fair as not every city has such a pretty setting as Vancouver, that's all.
