Revolution => Flash

[Stephen Barncard]

Brilliant paper, Andre!

Since you are fast becoming one of the leading authorities on 
connecting things Rev and the Web, shouldn't it be you, Andre, that 
does what Jerry Daniels and Chipp Walters have done: Made a product 
so important, unique and compelling that Revolution, Inc. would have 
no choice but to buy it and eventually integrate or bundle it into 
their product?

Or if you set up a project fund method, whatever. I'd pay good money 
for such a product.

It appears you've done tons of reading, research and practical 
applications.  We who've met you know what an intense amount of 
energy and knowledge you have so... congratulations.. perhaps this is 
a 'killer app' for you.

Web Safe elements!! Web Safe Code.  Great idea.
