Show your demonstrable proof. Should be easy if it's demonstrable.

Justnum, Since this thread started you've made a number of claims. You claim your Maxwell cloth uses electric and magnetic fields to change the speed of the cloth, and also lock the balls down. You claim your Maxwell balls can be magnetically locked. You claim your cloth is programmable and...

So if you don't have a working model, what were you trying to get me to buy?

Patent protection applies from the date you file, not the date the patent is issued. So if you submit a patent application tomorrow, your patent protection starts tomorrow. Do you have a working model?

I interpret your comment to mean you don't actually have a working model, and that this is an imaginary product. You've said you're selling your Maxwell Cloth, but the price depends on the CPU/GPU I have. How many have you sold? You offered to have a live stream. Have you changed your mind...

I said Costello and Abbott didn't build anything, they just proposed a similar idea, so I guess they were 'First'. Do you have a working model? Will you put on a video stream to show it in operation? You asked if I wanted to buy your Maxwell Cloth, but I wouldn't consider it without...

Who was first with this idea? I believe something like this was originally put forward by Costello and Abbott way back before World War II, but they didn't build a working model, and it wasn't really applicable to billiards. There was a group also trying to do this with a 3-input Framulator...

It occurs to me that just having the Shootout/900 rules 'ball-must-hit-the-rail' and 'ball-in-hand for all fouls' will speed the game up a lot, and there's probably no need for a shot clock or frame clock. Six reds is only a maximum of 18 shots, and 10 reds is a maximum of 26 shots. A good...

Ha! Ha! You haven't provided any info on your Maxwell Cloth other than the name. What's the price? What are the specifications? Where is it made, and by whom? How does it compare to other brands? Is it based on bed sheets by Abbot and Costello, or is it based on the Simonis 860? Didn't...

I wouldn't be dismissive of the Jethro Bodine School of Advanced Thinking, He was an amazing person. Grew up in poverty in the Ozarks, moved to California, and had a wide range of careers - everything from brain surgeon to movie producer and was even a secret agent for a time.

Graduate level study with who? Is this part of the Jethro Bodine School of Advanced Thinking? I know a couple of people who studied there.

You make it sound like the Maxwell Cloth, Maxwell Computer, Maxwell Pool Table, and Maxwell Pockets are all imaginary? Where does the name Maxwell come from? Is that from Maxwell Smart or a different Maxwell?

I'm talking about table cloth. If your Maxwell Cloth can compensate for a non-level table, why can't it compensate for an errant cueball when it knows where the cueball is intended to go?

Just like in straight pool, call the ball and the pocket. If i use my cue tip to tap the table in front of the pocket I'm aiming at, I've designated the pocket. I tap in front of the object ball to designate the object ball. To compute the required cue ball path must surely be trivial, so the...

But if it can correct for table level issues, it should be able to correct the path of an errant object ball?? Isn't that right? Even better if it corrects the cue ball's path, maybe?

I didn't realize it was based on ancient texts and reading between the lines with the aid of a linguist. Slow Cloth 2.0 compensating for table level sounds amazing! Couldn't it also compensate for a poor stroke by dynamically steering the object ball into the desired pocket? This could truly...

I understand. Maybe you could find someone in the lab who has both a security clearance and a high school education in magnetism, and maybe they could summarize the benefits and the technical issues?

Magnetic cloth holding magnetic balls down on the table, and magnetic balls electromagnetically sealed to each other. Clearly, you don't have any background in the physics of magnetism or electric fields. Denser balls. I don't think you know much about pool tables either. I think you're...

and the audience seems to be the younger demographic - at least in the better seats you can see on the videos.

And in four hours, the two Youtube videos of Marco Fu's 147 have more than 50,000 views.
