creating sites with just HTML as long as the code is kept tidy and the graphics are not too intense whole thing designed properly loads a lot faster than a flash designed site. HTML sites are also able to be viewed cross platform as well as cross browser where flash is limited

Flash requires flash player -- available for many platforms but not all. Flash sites typically take longer to load and are not as pleasing to view unless you are on broadband.
HTML is fast and universal -- but lacks some of the connection functionality (sockets) provided by Flash and Java.
