thruflo

I've made some changed to try and make it clearer, e.g.: putting summaries at the top of the main answers. In some cases I've edited a bit more. I hope the revisions make sense.

The main issue is the first main answer 1. The idea and its potential market impact. I've half revised and then made a note for you to finish off.

n.b.: I've changed references to Reputation Economy to Aggregated Micropayments -- for me it made much more sense to talk about a feature rather than a concept.
