"At last, Acme has conquered topological
and engineering frontiers to manufacture
genuine glass Klein Bottles. These are the
finest closed, non-orientable, boundary-free
manifolds sold anywhere in our three spatial
dimensions.
These elegant bottles make great gifts,
fantastic classroom displays, and inferior
mouse-traps. With its circle of singularities,
an Acme Klein Bottle can be said to exist
inside of itself -- especially handy during
time-reversals."

From the wacky world of Cliff Stoll (no relative?),
author of "Cuckoo's Egg" (great reading). Astrophysicist,
mathematician, computer whiz, bezerko, wacko, and
all-around brilliant nut. To learn more about these
Klein bottles (if you dare) click below and be prepared
for a journey into otherwise. This picture is of Cliff
holding the world's biggest (so far) Klein bottle. |
