There is nothing intrinsically wrong with creating an SEO-choking flash site so long as you tell them that only people who already know about you and know your brand name and URL will be able to find you.

I never thought about it in that specific way, but far too many restaurants have a Flash site. It's also the case with many night clubs and similar institutions. I am also wondering about who those people behind making those kinds of sites are? How much are they charging for it? Bizzare stuff! Just recently I spoke to a local coffee shop owner who is in the process of getting a web site and he said to me 'our developers built the site in Flash first and now are changing it to HTML as it does not SEO properly'. How much negligence about the overall situation is that sentence implying? Horrible! Good point made about ‘who is advising restaurants to build a Flash web site?’.
