; CLASSIC FOTD December 23, 1998 (Ceremonial Radical)
; 
; Fractal visionaries:
; 
; Today seemed a lot more like winter here at fractal central.  
; The afternoon temperature of 28F -2C and forecast of snow for 
; tomorrow made it perfect for a fractal hunt.
; 
; I hunted in the MandelbrotMix7 formula, experimenting with the 
; parameters in a whimiscal manner to see what I might find.  What 
; I found was today's image, a strange fractal with a ceremonial 
; aura about it.
; 
; I named the picture "Ceremonial Radical" because of the effect 
; of deep symbolism in the image.  As I understand it, a radical 
; is almost the same as a bud, but differs from a bud in that the 
; word "radical" refers to the entire set of features connected 
; with a bud, such as sub-buds, stars, filaments, etc.
; 
; In today's picture, the radical is the bud at lower center, 
; along with all the associated debris.  Toward the top of the 
; picture lies a very distorted M-set, with its period-2 bud 
; larger than its main bay.
; 
; Today's GIF file, (a small one), has been posted to:
; 
;         <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Tomorrow, I'll return with more wonders from the world of 
; fractals, and maybe a fractal limerick or two.  Until then, 
; take care, be cynical if you wish, and be true to your 
; fractals if you want them to be true to you.
