Actually, this website claims that flash and IE are both necessary to view the site. For me, that means it's *completely* useless. What ever happened to html? Spine should know better.

I've had no problems viewing it with Netscape. However, I do agree that any Flash site should at least have a low-res, text alternative, not only out of consideration for visually impaired folks like yourself, Will, but also in consideration for those people who don't have hundreds of kbps to burn in bandwidth because they have dialup connections. Don't get me wrong, Spine's Flash site is cool, but one shouldn't forget that not everyone has cable or DSL access at their house. - - Julian [ Julian C.
