Google is big on Java (but not "JAVA"), and Android code is often in Java (but not "JAVA"). That doesn't mean the browser should support applets. And support for Flash is up to neither Google nor Java. Why in the world should anyone be "gutted" (whatever the heck that means) about this? Write to Adobe for your Flash concern and the browser maker (who isn't Google, BTW), with your complaint. Whining here won't help. Do try to complain to the right people. Google and Oracle won't be the right people. Neither are we. -- Lew
