Sorry, dont have time to read the whole thread, but here are my comments anyway...
1) Can we curve a CB? Yes, obviously by using spin
2) Does the spin put on the CB transfer to the OB? yes, at some microscopic level it must.
3) Can the spin transferred to the OB cause it to curve? yes, at some microscopic level it must.
4) Is the amount of "curve" that can be transferred to an OB ever enough to see with the naked eye? Maybe, Maybe not.
5) Is the amount of curve that can be transferred to an OB ever enough to matter in a real pool game? Nope.
