All valid, subjective and personal reasons to avoid this form of  
information distribution. ;~)
Please note that I understand why folks dislike flash content.
Yet, as a form - flash can present content in ways that no other code  
can; and in the hands of an artist, it can be quite amazing. Enjoy or  
not; as you see fit ;~)

Fond regards,
George
