Even if it were only 1/4 as effective, that would still be a very big 
step. It would only take a few more steps like that to catch up, as it 
were.

But Ruby/(Zope+Flash) might also be pretty cool.

Can anyone fill us in on the most interesting/profitable current/emerging 
uses/users/markets for Flash-related stuff--especially for *dynamic* Flash 
movies?

It would be interesting to see animated time-lapse 2-color counter-flow 
schematic hydrology models of money and products/services exchanges in 
extended production resource chains.
