Nothing, except for the fact that some people might *like* the flash stuff. If 
they like flash, flashblock is not of much use to them, is it? That's the 
point I'm trying to make.

This is how it goes. You like avant..you use it. I like FireFox, I use that. 
What happens to those users who like FireFox *and* Flash? As far as I know, 
they are not mutually exclusive communities. The designers need to think 
about such stuff. That is the reason for having plug-ins. And did I not hear 
you say <quote>Avant is great but stupid</quote>? Is it available for Linux? 
No (again, quoting you). Firefox is. So stop whining. If you like Avant so 
much, port it. Oh..you can't! Its not free (as in freedom)! And, does Avant 
allow you to *enable* flash, if you suddenly have the whim to waste 
bandwidth?

Nobody. By the same logic, you don't get to decide for me or the community 
whether flash support should be put into FireFox.

Read. Understand the grammar. I'm not saying that the webmasters are always 
responsible. But its their responsibility (shall we say duty?) to provide a 
flash free site, for those who desire it. And, what's wrong with making 
money?
