You need to give the particles a very *high* rebound in order for them 
to keep going...I think the only good way to do this will require 
inter-particle forces and/or particle-ground forces. I've done a system 
like this before which didn't do any collision detection, just 
avoidance: I had the ground repel the particles, so they hovered 
slightly above it and constantly slid downhill, taking the easiest path.
