The Morris Worm at 30

Cliff Stoll now sells beautiful handmade Klein bottles out of his Berkeley home (by appointment) and is a lovely guy to visit. These are, for my money, the finest non-orientable manifolds available in the Bay Area today.

I got a Klein bottle a while back and it's one of my favorite 'ornamental' possessions!

Yeah, I got a small starter bottle. The biggest one I recall seeing was this beast, but I don't know whether it is still for sale: https://www.kleinbottle.com/meter_tall_klein_bottle.html

I saw him give a talk once; he's an extraordinarily good speaker.
