: I heard the term "Blue-Sky Thinking" the other day, and I like it. It means "Brainstorming". I heard it from a co-worker. Apparently it's been around for a while but it was the first time I'd heard it. The reason I like it is because it's new, or at least it's new to me and I suspect it's new to many others!

I wonder if this saying is related to the "Blue Sky Laws" that, at least in South Carolina, restrict the products can be purchased on Sundays, alcohol for example. The phrase is more commonly refered to as "Blue Laws".
