; FOTD -- July 08, 2004 (Rating 7)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; We had a flood in Fractal Town on Wednesday, but the fractal 
; basement remained dry.  I attribute the dryness to the mystical 
; power of fractals.  Only unknown magical forces could have kept 
; the water out of the basement, and fractals are the closest 
; things to magic that I know of.  My next task is to put the 
; fractal magic to work on the work backlog.   :-)
; 
; Today's quickie image returns us to the same area of the same 
; fractal that gave us yesterday's image.  The viewer must again 
; take my word that a midget lies at the center of the conver-
; gence, for the midget lies far beyond resolution.  In fact, the 
; image itself is of such a high magnitude that I needed to in-
; sert the 'mathtolerance' entry in the parameter file to assure 
; that it renders at the correct magnitude.
; 
; I named the image "Cube-Root of 2-Two" for catalog purposes.  
; I rated it at a 7 because I feel that it is a bit better than 
; yesterday's effort.  The render time of 10 minutes gives the 
; whole thing an overall value of 69.
; 
; There is not much more to say about the image other than to 
; report that it is available on the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; A very hot 92F 33C day on Wednesday was cooled to 72F 22C by a 
; very heavy late afternoon thunder-shower, which sent the dynamic 
; duo scurrying for cover.  By the time the rain ended, the sun 
; was setting and the day had come to a close.  The duo emerged 
; from hiding shortly after nightfall, having totally forgotten 
; that their day in the yard had been cut short.  Today is start-
; ing partly sunny and slightly cooler.  This is good for cats and 
; humans alike.  Unless the unexpected happens, as it sometimes 
; does, I will return in 24 hours with the next FOTD.  Until then, 
; take care, and remember that V+F always equals E+2.
