LWSS-LWSS bounce

LWSS-LWSS bounce is the following symmetric reaction in which two LWSSes collide head-on to form two [glider]s heading apart at 90 degrees from each other. Compare LWSS-LWSS deflection.

This provides one way to inject a glider into a existing glider stream. Another use is described in Double X.
