A secret is wasted if not shared
Dear Mr Rusty
How are you kind sir! Sorry about the lack of schooling but like my present posts show; I was a bit of a rebel and didn’t take kindly to “Instant Obedience”.
I left Saint Columbus High school in Greenock (Unofficially) at twelve! Was persuaded back at thirteen and left officially at fourteen in year! 19-37.

Please don’t blame the School mister Rusty as it was there that I was asked by Mr Maguire our maths teacher the following question:
How many times would a billiard ball with a nine inch circumference roll on a twelve foot billiard table? My answer was “Once” which had me ejected from the class again.

Snooker balls Mr Rusty do not roll and can’t be made to “Roll”. The ball is moved by thrust force with centre striking in “Skid” motion but when the ball is addressed off centre it also revolves in that specific “Axes” whether 4 to10 or 2 to eight.

By the way my educated friend this bit of copyright knowledge applies to all “Balls”. The golf ball may “Roll”! But will only Roll once before becoming stationary.
For the record Mr Rusty! The above information is part of the “Fine Art” snooker programme that has been recorded copyright to offer to schools as a © sport subject at both “O” and” “A” level with a touch also of elementary physics. Mr Hey You
