Added some outline and background info to readme. Small changes to intro. and results text1. Outline conclusions.

Introduce through context of Mountcastle/Hubel Wiesels somatosensory
and visual cortical column organization. All these indicate that
columns/hyper/macro columns are 300-500µm diameter across species.
