i don't think you can definitively state that newer versions of Flash will
repoen that old pus-filled rift between artists and programmers ... it all
depends on what you want to do.

Heck, throw C++ into Flash if you want to - i can still produce a competent
animation that requires no more scripting than "Go to and play." (Or go.to
and { play sin(pi) } * 4.5 blah blah blah ... whatever the new syntax is.)
