	I remember someone using this source before and it seems fairly unreliable. For example Shanghai already reportedly had 4000 skyscrapers in 2004: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/3105948.stm http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/18/world/asia/18iht-boom.html?_r=1

	This quiz is on the number of high rise buildings not on the number of sky scrapers.

	Ollie - to paulio's point, if both the BBC & NY Times verify Shanghai as having 4000 or so 'skyscrapers', it would follow it has at least 1356 'high rise buildings' and thus should be included on this list. In fact, the NY Times reported in 2005 Shanghai "already has 4,000 skyscrapers, almost double the number in New York." The issue is with the source, not with you.

	Yeah the source counts "high rise" buildings as more than 12 storeys high, and I'm pretty sure that by definition skyscrapers must be taller than that.
