Javascript and Flash

It's funny how little of the modern web works when you turn noscript on. It's refreshing to see all the broken assumptions developers have (especially the number of sources a script might come from). I imagine that a graceful fallback (fairly sure weblocks does this, and google has a broad range of feature levels for their services) in the absence of javascript would be a usability requirement for any serious site. The number of pages with inescapable flash intro splash screens, or worse still, entire ui's in flash, seems to be on a decline. That's good...
