To my surprise, I haven't found anyone breaking their bottle on purpose. (or on a porpose). One of the nicest things about running this micro-business is that, sooner or later, I'll meet most of the people who own a Klein bottle. The math & physics community is a wonderful place...

I’m not really part of the math and physics community, but I just wanted to say I’ve been delighted by everything I’ve ever seen that you’ve done. You make the world a more interesting and fun place.
Thank you, oh North Cutt!

It's both an honor and a joy to find myself a member of several impressive communities ... old-style hackers, math & physics jocks, people with solder-burns on their fingers, and left-coast techies.

I bought 2 to act as vases for the sweetheart table at our wedding years ago. Thank you!
How on earth did you get two porpoises onto a table?
Clearly, it wasn't on earth, as porpoises are native in the water. Perhaps he had the porpoises on a water table?
BRB: going to find a porpose...
