; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; The non-fractal work is unexpectedly heavy again here at F.C., 
; so today's discussion will have to be short and to the point.
; 
; The point is that today's image is a scene in the fractal which 
; results when 9.9 parts of Z^(-0.41) are subtracted from 0.9 
; parts of Z^(1.4) and (1/C) is added.  This fractal resembles 
; a distorted Mandelbrot set with East Valley on its southern 
; side.  The scene of today's image is located in the interior of 
; this valley.
; 
; The coloring is different from my usual rather somber palettes.  
; Instead of dark blues and purples, I have colored it in bright 
; oranges and tints of white, with a little green and black thrown 
; in for emphasis.
; 
; The image was calculated using the outside=tdis option, which, 
; in this image, gives more bands than the normal equal-iteration 
; method, and therefore smoother colors.
; 
; I named the image "Back to Work" because that's what I have to 
; do as soon as I post this letter.  The image has been rated at a 
; 6.  The render time of 8 minutes gives an overall value of 68.
; 
; And the minor task of rendering the image from the included 
; parameter file may be avoided by downloading the completed GIF 
; image from Paul's FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Another near perfect late winter day here at Fractal Central on 
; Monday kept the two fractal cats happy.  The sun and temperature 
; of 57F 14C were pleasant for people also.  Today is starting 
; cloudy with light rain, but the rain is already moving out.  I 
; expect better things to come by afternoon.
; 
; For me, the work is heavy today, but I always manage to find 
; time enough for another fractal.  Until tomorrow, when that 
; fractal will appear, take care, and have you tried the miracle 
; fractal diet?
