I'm all for Flash when it works, but I feel like I'm constantly having 
to talk designers out of using it. It mixes functionality in with code 
and buries it all in a hard to update file. Designers see a need for 
functionality and think Flash. They often think dynamic and robust mean 
animated and.... animated.
