How can you create a text that blinks?

Thanks!

Please don't. Blinking text is the devil. If you think you need to make text blink, then you probably need to rethink your whole banner ad or web site. Because blinking text is terrible.

charm says: use blinking text and i will come to your house and poison your dog.

believe me, the pay-off is not worth the risk. unless you are going for that cutting-edge 1995 look...

And to further Charm, you may want to look into getting a flame animated gif to go with the blinking text. Then youd for sure be circa 1995. Actually, any obnoxious animated gif would work well, but fire is a classic. :D
