I always got frustrated as a kid when I set up elablorate domino designs and had then all fall down before I finished, wasting hours of work. Maybe this would remedy that! But then the computer part kind of takes away the fun of putting up all the dominos by hand.
What we need is sticky dominos that stick to the surface and so don't fall over, and then you say "abracadabra!" and they are not sticky anoymore and can fall over! |

Seems like you might as well do the whole thing on the computer - a sort of "Sim-Dominoes" in which you can set up any domino pattern you want and see the lines of dominoes collapse from whatever viewpoint you choose. You could even have dominoes which explode, shatter or burst into flames when they fall. |

there ment to fall the only time you play with dominoes relly is when theres nothing else to do and you want to wast time it would go so fast if you used a computer that you would get bored with it sooner |

I don't think that I precluded manual setting -- simply allowed for automated resetting |

As a kid *I* learned the value of insurance - i left out every 20th or so domino as I was building it, so that if I goofed at least it wouldn't destroy the whole line. |

I see there is such a thing as a domino Effect. This is not a domino Affect on people, although bad government, bad business and bad social values try and convince me otherwise. |
