I want to do this w/ out action script  
and would like to make particles stream from the  
center to the outer perimeter  
of the circle wrere trails/tail is created by the spinning.

I have been looking all over for tutorials  
for this but have found none.

I tried doing this by nesting and using movies  
and motion guides but it does not seem to  
work.

Thanks

Kevin
