It's always funny to me when someone adds a post to a thread and then 

says "Kill this thread."


In other words, "Now that I have offered my opinion on the matter, 

and, due to the fact that I regard my opinion to be THE FINAL 

STATEMENT and THE ONLY TRUE UNDERSTANDING regarding the matter in 

question, I would like it if everyone would let me have the last 

word!"


And, no need to kill this lovely thread, anyway. Just take it over to 

alt.usage.english, where it belongs!


HTH,


Ken Sherwood, back to work I hope.

"In particular, I was musing about where Flash would be in a couple 

of years.  Right now, it's been delivered to a vast number of 

clients, either by being packaged with a browser, or via a download. 

Developers are now developing Flash content that is small yet 

effective visually.  It seems to offer lots of design possibilities. 

Will it still be here in 3 years?  Adobe, who has deeper pockets than 

Macromedia, has announced a Flash competitor.  Will Macromedia 

survive?  Will their vision and focus, so far unsullied [*sic*], 

survive?"
