    You've said the magnetic balls were ready to be demonstrated at a public lecture, but now that we can set up the public lecture, you can't do it. You've said you would describe the mathematics/physics behind your Maxwell cloth at a public lecture, but now you can't do it. Just hot air. You...

    Next summer is 8 months away? That doesn't make much sense if you're trying to raise funding. What if someone else develops magnetic balls in the meantime? What about the Maxwell cloth? Are you dropping that? We can't send a press release about an upcoming lecture without a date, time, and...

    There won't be any food ordered, since that would require raising funds. The informal reception will be a meet-and-greet and people will have to fend for themselves for food and drink. Amsterdam Billiards isn't the closest billiards hall to your institution, but it is well known. Is the date...

    US Open hard to watch

    That's not the way I remember it. She didn't seem to me to be mocking Shane, she just said she didn't know if he was playing, and maybe he was just going fishing. I thought it was a lighthearted comment.

    Sorry, I haven't heard anything about a Larrson cue. So, you haven't responded to the plan for you to give a lecture, and we could stream it, and have an informal reception afterwards. Here's the post again. It seems to meet all your requirements that you've posted. What if any changes would...

    That's even better! 1. You make arrangements to provide a lecture hall at your institution or we arrange one nearby. 2. We provide a live stream, and that will also enable you to invite all your faculty and student body, as well as your colleagues in Europe and around the world. It gets around...

    Then maybe a stream on YouTube or Zoom would be even better. People from around the world could tune in. What would be the title of your talk? Do you think an hour would be long enough, or would two hours be better?

    Airfare, taxis hotel, and meals would come out to about $2600. I'm certain that your request for someone's daughter would label you too pig-like to get any support from our funding committee. The most efficient option would be for me to ask your academic institution to provide the lecture...

    So you'd want travel costs covered, but there would be no charge for your time?

    And what would be the cost if nobody wanted to offer their daughter up for your entertainment?

    So you're asking us to foot the entire bill for travel costs? Is there a cost for your time as well? If so, how much would that be?

    If invited for a public talk, would you or your institution pay for the travel, hotels. and meals? If so, that still leaves the cost of hosting the talk like room rental, etc. Would you or your institution pay for that?

    Inviting you to a live talk requires funding. And funding doesn't happen without justification. That funding can only happen if you provide an explanation showing that your ideas have merit and are worth presenting in a public forum. You've said why you think magnetic balls are an...

    There's still the question whether this project deserves funding support. And public talks require funding from somewhere. You haven't answered the question of how the physics of the game would change with friction-less cloth? What are the pros and cons? Why would players want to play on...

    So would you expect the magnetic balls to be used only in tournaments where there's a ref doing the racking, or would you expect magnetic balls to get a wide following and be adopted by all pool halls? Non-frictional cloth would change the physics of the game. Can you specify some ways the...
