Yes, it would be silly to use both, because prototype+scriptaculous and
mootools try to do a lot of the same things.  The mootools guys coded their
library such that it wouldn't conflict w/ prototype, but I wouldn't
recommend using them together if it can be helped.  Just pick one
foundational javascript library (whether it be prototype, jquery, mootools,
dojo, mochikit, or whatever...) and go with it.

And when you pick a javascript library, it's like you're marrying it.
Although it *is* possible to use multiple foundational libraries one a
single site, doing so tends to not work so well.  For one thing, it
introduces a lot of redundancy which is wasteful.  Another annoyance is that
sometimes libraries can conflict w/ each other if they're inadvertently
using the same namespace for something.  ...so beware.
