God, where should I start. I was first turned on to this book by Kat. Her brain is much more powerful than mine, so I am now reading it again to try and get my thoughts around a little more of it. It is an excellent book; however, I just lack the background knowledge to fully understand a lot of it. Perhaps I should say, to understand it at any applicable level. I can understand most of the concepts and ideas, I just cannot envision many of them. Still, the little I have been able to absorb has really given me a completly different perspective on our existence and on the world around me, both of the vast and the miniscule. Can't wait until the Hadron Collider is up and running. What will we learn from there in the next few years?
