USBank is owned by US Bancorp and Security Pacific is owned by Bank of America. US Bancorp and BofA have taken bailout money (according to Wikipedia anyway).
If you're gonna argue that it'll kill Flash, add a few other things:
* Sound generation * Graphical filters (sorry, no matter how fast a scripting language gets, its not fast enough to do this within reason) * p2p connections * Sockets * llvm support (or some equivalent) * Anything else Adobe thinks up between now and and the time all those things you mention achieve 80%+ penetration
I'm not trying to be (too) snarky here, but you need to know that Flash is a little more than a video/canvas/3D/scripting plugin before you can argue whether or not we'll be seeing its demise.

Judging from your diatribe you are a United States citizen. Waterloo University is in Canada. I guess that's another escape route gone?
