I'm all for using flash when it's appropriate, but in terms of
graceful degradation and accessibility, and obviously depending
on the specific application, a bit of conscienciously written
and implemented javascript can help add interactive functionality
without the need to create a completely separate, non-flash
alternative.

Admittedly though, both Schiller example sites are just a bit
over the top - good proof of concept, but not really to be used
for proper commercial sites (and yes, they haven't been coded with
graceful degradation in mind at all)
