But since their floats were tied to the reef, and their bubbles were carried off a vertical path by the light currents, neither could have been used to pinpoint their whereabouts unless whoever dropped the chicken had an excellent knowledge of the currents in this particular place! He carried the thought further.
"We'll never make it this way," Ato said. "Not even the emergency storage would help us. Here," he pointed to a pinpoint of light upon the map. "A white star. We can reach it, I think." Nea sighed. "That dust-cloud is beyond our calculations. We should be nearly there, but it's still far-off. I think it is shrinking and expanding.
Moreover, I hoped some books even more recent would permit me to pinpoint the date precisely; but I had plenty of time to look for them, and I didn't want to put off any longer our stroll through the wonders of the Nautilus. "Sir," I told the captain, "thank you for placing this library at my disposal. There are scientific treasures here, and I'll take advantage of them."
I heard its tiny pinpoint of voice last Sunday afternoon when I was walking past a plantation where the bullace was in flower, and, on looking into the trees, saw the little thimble-sized creature making free with invisible insects his beak is hardly big enough to eat a visible one and performing acrobatics like a tit.

"You can't pinpoint the region closer than just the Baltic?"
No two individuals showed the same reactions. In every test the results were either flatly impossible or completely the opposite of what was expected. Carefully they retraced their steps, trying to pinpoint what could be going wrong. "There's got to be a laboratory error," Dal said wearily. "We must have slipped up somewhere." "But I don't see where," Jack said.

He hardly knew when he raised one trembling hand and pointed, while a voice quite unlike his own said huskily: "Look! Look! I told you it was so!... There! In that little crater! it's signaling!
He locked the bank-notes in a drawer of the dressing-table, undressed with his usual elaborate care, approached Rachel's bed and gazed at her unresponsive form, turned down the gas to a pinpoint, and got into bed himself. Not the slightest sound could be heard anywhere, either in or out of the house, save the faint breathing of Rachel. And after a few moments Louis no longer heard even that.
