PPL is also the acronym for a scientist I know who is completely unrelated to this elevatory feat of human engineering. ❋ McDawg (2008)
From the intimate and complicated manner in which the elevatory and eruptive forces were shown to be connected during this train of phenomena, we may confidently come to the conclusion that the forces which slowly and by little starts uplift continents, and those which at successive periods pour forth volcanic matter from open orifices, are identical. ❋ Unknown (2003)
All these speculations, however, must be vague; for who will pretend to say that there may not have been several periods of subsidence, intercalated between the movements of elevation? for we know that along the whole coast of Patagonia there have certainly been many and long pauses in the upward action of the elevatory forces. ❋ Unknown (2003)
The elevatory movement, and the eating-back power of the sea during the periods of rest, have been equable over long lines of coast; for I was astonished to find that the step-like plains stand at nearly corresponding heights at far distant points. ❋ Unknown (2003)
It would appear also that the elevatory and subsiding movements follow nearly the same laws. ❋ Unknown (2003)
Hence in these cases it would appear that volcanos burst forth into action and become extinguished on the same spots, accordingly as elevatory or subsiding movements prevail there. ❋ Unknown (2003)
All this is certain, because rocks of cretaceous, or still later, date have shared in the elevatory movements which gave rise to these mountain chains; and may be found perched up, in some cases, many thousand feet high upon their flanks. ❋ Unknown (2003)
It is therefore clear that the elevatory forces which gave rise to the mountains operated subsequently to the ❋ J. H. Gardiner (N/A)

Moreau remarks (in the edit. of 1820 of ` La Physionomie, par G. Lavater, 'vol.iv. p. 237), and quotes Portal in confirmation, that asthmatic patients acquire permanently expanded nostrils, owing to the habitual contraction of the elevatory muscles of the wings of the nose. ❋ Unknown (1898)
