Yes, thanks guys , that really, really, really clears things up . Super easy explanation, such a marvelous analogy. I was very confused as to what the hell is going on with steem power and steem dollars and steem and how you power down and power up and what that actually does but now it's all so clear and easy to understand. Its mimicking a Steam power plant!!!!!! of course, i'm kicking myself for not seeing that from the off. Thanks again for this simple, direct and honest post. I was blind and now I can see.
