Flash is a very bloated plugin distributed by Macromedia. I think it works only with Windows browsers. You have to keep upgrading to the latest and greatest version of the plugin so that it will slow your system down to the point where the typical Windows dummy will go out and buy a more modern and faster computer to keep up with all the new fascinating gizmos on today's modern web. Web sites designed for use with the Flash plugin will provide lots of dazzle and animation. The dummies think it's so cool. Most of us on this mailing list would of course prefer to just have fast access to information and we would rather forego the glitz because of the detrimental effect it has on our system speed and the time required to download a web page.
