Thanks Anne... Is there some easy way to resurrect prior discussions of
this from the archives somewhere? I would like to try to understand the

animation is rather charming and the "complicatedness" is cognitively
less demanding than scripting. Its popularity will probably be
synergized by rather dramatic increases in use of SVG.
