Jim Muth in a 7th of Oct. 2003 correction says, "The 'Projective Plane' fractal appeared on Jan. 6, 1998." (not Jan. 1, 1998 as I quoted from the "[Fractint] Classic FOTD 01-01-98 (Projective Plane)" post also from 7th of Oct. 2003.) If I had read down a little further in the list of postings I would have found this exchange: On 7 Oct 03, at 15:29, Jim Muth wrote:

Actually, The above date and fractal name did not originally get used together many years ago on the "Fractal-Art" List.
Though I am sure this was an accidental mistake by Jim, I would hate to see this List end up like a couple of others I know of, where the participants try to alter history whenever they wish. ;-}
Lee is right; history is safe. I made a mistake -- most likely the first of many. The 'Projective Plane' fractal appeared on Jan. 6, 1998. The fractal of 01-01-98 was named "Snub-Nosed Midget", an image that I considered but did not use.
