Hey, @sparkesy43.

I think we're more or less in agreement that there is a need for more people, and more people with earned STEEM. At the rate we're going, though, it's going to take a while before that's the case, and we seem to be dependent on too many things for any of that to happen anytime soon. And, it seems like that's all people are aware of and concerned about. The social side, and all it might entail.

I think if we zoom out, look at where we want to go, and focus more on that, we'll get there, rather than marching around in circles like we seem to do. :)
