 ## How it works
 
-Internally
\ No newline at end of file
+Internally, `generational-box` creates an arena of generational RefCell's that are recyled when the owner is dropped. You can think of the cells as something like `&'static RefCell<Box<dyn Any>>` with some a generational check to make recyling a cell easier to debug. Then GenerationalBox's are `Copy` because the `&'static` pointer is `Copy`
