I'm not going to comment on the subject matter, but this guy is pissed. You can tell by his nervousness -- shows that he is passionate about his tools. Good for him

Or it shows that he's freaking out, because some people are telling him he's hitched his cart to a dying horse, and trying his best to rationalize them away.

Flash developers (read: not designers hacking together an intro/banner) don't care if the Flash technology dies.

Flash developers want the development experience that Flash offers. HTML5 doesn't offer it...yet. When it does, I personally would love to migrate to it.

Your assumptions are pitiful and illogical.

Exactly my thoughts.

Let HTML5 prove itself instead of insisting that it's better because it's open.

That isn't an argument anyone outside academia can afford making.

Passionate about his tools or really angry because he thinks the other arguments are stupid. Either way, it makes no difference in his argument.
