; FOTD -- March 31, 2004 (Rating 6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; For today's FOTD I depart from my usual unending stream of 
; midgets and present one of the many other objects that exist in 
; the world of fractals.
; 
; The object I chose resembles something that might be found 
; crawling along the floor of some pre-historic sea.  It might be 
; a trilobite, it might be something entirely unknown, but 
; whatever it is, it has been extinct for many millions of years.  
; I named the picture "Pre-History" in recognition of something 
; that came and went so long ago.
; 
; Today's image is part of the fractal that results when the Z of 
; yesterday's formula is changed to Z^(1.6), and the other 
; parameters are kept the same.  At first glance it appears as 
; though no midgets lie hidden in its depths, but the midgets are 
; there, and one of them will appear as tomorrow's FOTD.
; 
; The rating of 6 combines with the render time of 34 minutes to 
; give an overall value of 18.  The rendering may be avoided by 
; downloading the finished GIF image from the FOTD web site at:

;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Unusually chilly temperatures and heavy clouds here at Fractal 
; Central on Tuesday limited the fractal cats' outdoor time to 
; less than 1/2 hour.  Considering that the temperature never rose 
; above 45F 7C, their moods were quite good.  Today is starting 
; similarly unpleasant.  I expect a similar reaction from the duo.
; 
; It's now time to put the day's tasks behind me, so until next 
; time, take care, and which way did that fractal go?
