[Fractint] FOTD 11-09-05 (11-09-05 [NA])

      FOTD -- September 11, 2005 (Rating NA)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is a scene along the eastern shoreline of the main 
bay of the fractal that results when the formula Z^(1.9)+C is 
iterated by the MandelbrotBC2 formula.  I gave it no name and no 
rating.  Its render time is a short 3-3/4 minutes, but even this 
short time may be cut further by downloading the completed GIF 
image from the FOTD web site at:

       <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>

Most of today's discussion does not directly concern fractals, 
and appears only in the philofractal version.

The weather on Saturday here at Fractal Central was quite 
perfect.  But the fractal cats seemed unusually subdued.  They 
must be mourning all the cats that perished in the disaster.  
I'll be pondering various things for the rest of the day.  The 
next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until then, take care and 
all one needs to do is be himself.
