Yes, if the method is marked remote, than Flash can access it.

Why would CF require a different returntype than Flash? The CFC should be
the one to determine what returnType (or argument types) are used.

Not true. CF can easily call a CFC method with access=remote.

Eh? This makes no sense. The CFARGUMENT tag simply _declares_ the variable
names, as well as help provide validation. You can write a method w/o
<cfargument> tags, but would not be wise.

What exactly is the method doing?
