Nobody could have been more surprised than me when I found the near-perfect rectangles scattered everywhere. To make things even worse, there are Mandelbrot midgets in the area, surrounded by empty rectangles. All this goes to show that, just because I have been writing the FOTD for over 9 years, makes me no expert in the field of fractals, which remain unpredictable. I doubt that anyone including Mandelbrot himself could claim to know any more than a tiny part of all there is to know about fractals.
Actually, having read Mr Mandelbrot's book, I'd say he very definitely thinks he knows everything about fractals. ;-) But I bet he doesn't know as much about making them with Fractint as Jim does! -- David gnome@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community
