Flash was originally created for vector art animation. However, it has  
evolved into a lot more, like full sites. That's fine, but I still  
care too much about broad SEO coverage to use Flash for layout.

Tables were originally made for data, not layout. Historically  
speaking, table layout is a hack. It just became acceptable.

HTML tags provided for style. CSS was about controlling style by  
creating style sets. Maintenance and site consistency can be a real  
nightmare without it. Layout was a part of that original CSS 1.0 design.

My real point is this:

We can use a screwdriver or a big rock as a hammer. We humans are good  
at improvising. Using tables for layout is a perfect example of that  
skill taken to its most Neanderthal-like, animalistic level.
