Macro level is just fine! that really puts you well ahead on the vast majority. Most people don't even attempt to get a sense of this--they run instead(VBG:) i welcome people that just want to get a feel for this.
BTW, the last Discover Magazine, they have the cover a picture of Einstein UPSIDE DOWN and on side "Einstein's Universe Being Over Turned"(so it is getting out there now, bit by bit). But i remind we could NEVER have been able to taking this next step without Einstein--that is how science works as it delves deeper and deeper into the greatest mystery that has ever existed--the "why is there anything?".
i never criticize Einstein, ever--if alive he would be applauding this new wave of scientific rebels--Einstein himself was a fearless rebel---his hair was NOT an accident(see pictures when young, his hair neat and combed, and mildly goodlooking)--he wore his hair the way he did, just because he couldn't stand conformity:)
The best part of this though, just before Einstein, the field of Physics and Cosmologist were saying we now understand all--they had become complacent--science is just as prone to stagnant complacency as any other area.
After Einstein got his Phd in Physics, he was turned down from being a teacher by 200 schools: biggest reason, his Department head in Physics when he was a student, called a man of an arrogant rebellious nature, he's a troublemaker with wacky ideas.
i quote newton "People say to me "You are the most brilliant man in the world, you know everything', but i tell them to think of me in this way,, think of a man walking a pebble beach, and ever so often out thousands and thousands, he finds a special pebble, and that is a puzzle piece, but i am JUST on the beach, out in front of me is the vast ocean, of which i know nothing. i am just a man fortunate enough to discover a few special pebbles, but i have just scratched the surface" i feel all great scientist have that inner humility--though they seem bold arrogant iconoclast to their colleagues. Enough babble. Max:)
