That is completely the wrong way to go. You get smooth animation out
of a web browser running javascript by writing lean, efficient code.
You will not get it by starting with inefficient and bloated code and
adding to it.
Don't listen to Richard. He leaves in 2001, when everything was coded from
scratch.
I don't know what you mean by "organic" but I think jQuery is the best
framework available, and it's "Interface Elements" add-on has a lot of good
effects:

The code is already "lean" and "efficient" and if you run the examples
you'll see that they run perfectly fine in your test browsers.
Richard's attitude is one of "if it's built on a framework, it must not be
as efficient as writing it from scratch" and he holds to this view despite
evidence to the contrary.
