; FOTD -- May 05, 2004 (Rating 6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; This will be a short discussion.  I am falling behind in my 
; work and must get caught up before I find myself in another 
; morass.
; 
; Yesterday's image was a meditation on the negative golden ratio; 
; today's is a meditation on the negative square root of 2.  The 
; parent fractal is another grossly oversized thing with more 
; places to investigate than could fit in an infinite universe.  
;        (oxymoron noted)
; 
; Today's image was rendered with the outside set to 'tdis', which 
; explains the name "The Total Distance".  The inside was set to 
; 'fmod' to fill in some holes.
; 
; Since IMO the image is a bit above the uninflated FOTD average, 
; I rated it at a 6.  The render time of just over 6 minutes gives 
; an overall value of 98.
; 
; Rendering can be eliminated entirely by downloading the finished 
; image from:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; A sunny but chilly day on Tuesday limited the cats' outdoor time 
; to under two hours.  But this was enough to keep their moods 
; good.  Today is starting sunny and warmer, but showers are 
; possible later.  We'll see how things go for the duo.
; 
; For me, it looks like a normal day.  Except for the left-over 
; sawdust, that fallen limb has been disposed of.  Until next 
; FOTD, take care, and be at ease.
