It was the "Line of Death" and Qaddafi drew it across the Gulf of Sidra. Cross it and his indomitable forces would kick some serious butt.

The reports are this morning that Mohammar Qaddafi has fled the country, apparently taking his entire wardrobe of impressive medal-bedecked uniforms with him.
And, there has been a crossing of the Line of Death again:
