So basically, this is how I’m adding one movie clip to the stage.

var balloon\_mc1 = new balloon();  
this.addChild(balloon\_mc1);

How do I do this for 100 of these movie clips, without typing  
var balloon\_mc1 = new balloon();  
this.addChild(balloon\_mc1);

var balloon\_mc2 = new balloon();  
this.addChild(balloon\_mc2);

var balloon\_mc3 = new balloon();  
this.addChild(balloon\_mc3);

etc, etc
