#N Syntheses of 4 billiard tables
#C A collection of 4 glider syntheses, found by David Buckingham,
#C of billiard table oscillators:
#C 12 gliders -> p8 Hertz oscillator
#C 14 gliders -> p3 MIT oscillator
#C 10 gliders -> p2 scrubber
#C  6 gliders -> p3 (unnamed?)
#C (Collection assembled by Dean Hickerson, 1/25/93.  The syntheses
#C are much older.)

#N Glider synthesis of hustler
#C 123 gliders crash to form the period 3 oscillator "hustler".  First,
#C 14 gliders are used to form the p8 Hertz oscillator, with non-standard
#C induction coils.  The induction coils are then repeatedly modified by
#C the next 99 gliders.  Finally, 10 gliders are used to reshape the
#C billiard table and induction coils, creating the hustler.
#C The steps of the construction were figured out by David Buckingham.
#C Dean Hickerson put them together, about 3/12/91, from notes by
#C Buckingham dated 1/30/90.
