Gene, don't you ever send me to a site with embedded music without a
warning again!

Also, can we all agree here and now that what is being perpetrated above
should simply be called a "Flashcrime"?

Note to website purchasers (I essentially assume the Flash coders are a
lost cause or in no position to say "no" at this point): end-to-end
unnavigable (no back button, dontcha know) Flash sites suck. 90 second
load times to see your fancy-ass site suck. Adobe doesn't pull this sort
of crap even on their Flash site!

Also, please observe this URL:

http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/

You do it that way with a bit of web server mojo, and you do it because
it respects your visitors and looks good to search engines.

So do it that way.

As long as it involves some sort of punishment that prevents the people
from ever perpetrating it again, I'm for that. Something involving
sledgehammers would be nice.

Cute move by Trek, going after the iPod generation, though I much prefer
the Breezer approach of more practical around-town bikes.
