Has anyone ever tried to, or have the slightest clue as to how to,
modify the excellent Tactilemedia bouncer.rev stack to actually have
the little "marbles" collide (even semi-realistically) with one
another or other objects in the window? My seve year old wants to
know and I have to admit I haven't been able to do it.

David,
Check out Nine Ball pool. The collisions are assumed to be elastic,
conserving momentum and energy.
Run this in the message box:

You son may want to start with something a little easier. Check out
BouncingBallTools for collisions of balls with other objects.

Good luck to your son. Games programing is probably a good place to
motivate a youngster. But it may also be the most difficult. In any
event, he will discover that the time he spends studying math will be
time well spent.
