That has to be one of the most tortured opening metaphors I've ever seen in a tech news story. Could they really not come up with an analogy more elegant than, "This building over here is pretty big, but this building is REALLY BIG!!!!"?
yeah I thought that was really strange too. Perhaps they could have gotten away with the metaphor if they didn't choose the "small" thing as the Vancouver office tower. Why not compare it to a house or something every is familiar with?
