I spent a few minutes on it, and it did nothing but change content-free
boxes on me and display the odd, equally content-free, message.

My suspicion is that anything interesting is in the flash.

You spent longer than I did, then. I was interested to see if it would load
because others had trouble with it. I found I had to click on it twice to
make it load but it did work. I think that's probably a small hiccup that
can be corrected easily. But the spelling and grammatical errors did hit my
eye immediately. Maybe that's a personal idiosyncrasy but it is certainly
something I find irritating and which would not scream 'professional' to me.
All of us can make mistakes but these led me to feel they were not mistakes
but habit, which is why I suggested someone else should proof-read the site.
This is a young person so getting it right now and learning from the
experience is going to be invaluable in the future. Whatever one is
selling, successful people know that your message to the buyer has to be
clear and if it's intended to inform, it has to be well-written.
