A grain of sand is physically large when it is in your eye
but physically small under your foot. :-) Likewise, physically/
electrically small depends upon wavelength.


Actually, that's not quite correct. In this context we are discussing
whether something's size is small or large compared to a wavelength.
Whether the wavelength is small or large compared to a grain of sand or
your eye is irrelevant. :-)
