[thelist] flash detection

[Erik Mattheis]

Try browsing the net for a while with Netscape 2, or any browser with 
stylesheets disabled (or stylesheets ENABLED on a Mac). Or getting 
all the information on an academic/scientific site without Acrobat. 
You will be barred from tons of information. What's the difference 
between that and Flash?

Flash has been shipping with the major browsers for like ... years. 
It's up to developers to force their audience to use reasonably 
current technology.
