Or I am wrong, in which case I'll happily pay out[1]. I'm a layman, as if that wasn't obvious, and it will be a much-needed physics lesson. Win-win.

I will happily spend more than $100 just on delivery if that is required to make a payout in liquor (local Swedish flavors) across the world. Crisp paper is fully acceptable as well :)
