Flash particle system (MEL page banner)

I created a page to post write-ups of various advanced MEL tricks that I've found myself using, and built a particle-system based flash banner for it.
The bits are a simple particle system, and so are the parts of the dandelion itself- the script creates the dandelion by placing movie clip instances in an increasing spiral, which made it really easy to animate the diameter with a minimum of code.
