Marsha:
There is some talk that this latest Japanese earthquake shifted the coastline
nearly eight feet and moved the Earth's axis:
"Margaret Atwood writes that when she asked a male friend
why men felt threatened by women, he replied "They are
afraid that women will laugh at them." When she asked a
group of women why women felt threatened by men, they
said, "We're afraid of being killed.""
(Iglesias, Holly, 'Boxing Inside the Box')
This may be a "different" analogy...
