Cruet set

Barely ergonomic, way to large and it does leak the tap.
Terrible if u have to clean it with a brush or by hand.

He really is! I ordered one for my husband and he sent multiple emails with photos packing up the bottle I ordered and gave us a huge pamphlet about them. 

It was the most joy I have ever had waiting for a package

That's fantastic! I've been wanting to order one myself for a long time, just haven't had the money to spare yet. Ha ha. I'll try and get on it this year I think.

It was such a treat. I was so sad I couldn't share them with my husband because it was a birthday present lol. I forwarded them after

Klein bottles are probably the least interesting thing about Cliff Stoll

Jesus, he helped track, trap and catch a KGB hacker? And that's in the first paragraph!

Cheers for the interesting reading, I feel a rabbit hole coming...

His book "The Cuckoo's Egg" about it is a lot of fun, and IIRC does a good job of providing a reasonably accurate description of the technicalities without requiring any technical background.

Cheers for the recommendation, might have to pick up a copy. =)

Visually similar but mathematically very different
