Back on 10 March I made a rare posting to this list. .......... In turn this prompts me to say a BIG THANK YOU.....
I think most of us do what we do because we are a bit fanatical about fractals, and FractInt was one of our original applications which made such explorations possible. And we try to share our enthusiasm with as many people as we can influence and convert. :-)
....I have been subscribed to the Fractint list since 1991, and have followed it closely ever since.
Then that must include the old GRAPHDEV forum on CompuServe, because this particular FractInt List was initiated via XMission on August 09, 1997 at 15:21:15 (CT) when Tim Wegner made the first "test" posting saying: "Just seeing if this works." This list was a spin-off of the Fractal-Art list run on the Aros.net, and both lists back then used Majordomo. Sincerely, P.N.L.
