; FOTD -- December 14, 2004 (Rating 7)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Another busy day today will keep the discussion short.  Today's 
; image is a new distortion of the midget that appeared in 
; yesterday's FOTD image.  But whereas yesterday's distortion was 
; expected, today's is totally unexpected.  I named it "The 
; Unexpected Thing".
; 
; The color palette, which gives the impression of a colorful 
; midget remnant sitting isolated in the midst of a vast grey 
; wasteland, is unusual enough to earn the image a rating of a 7.  
; The relatively brief render time of 2 minutes raises this to an 
; overall worth of 334.
; 
; The scene may be seen  ;-)  by running the parameter file or by 
; downloading it from:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Brisk winds and a chilly temparature of 43F 6C kept the fractal 
; cats confined to the porch on Monday.  Needless to say, tuna was 
; needed.  Today is starting even chillier.  More tuna is likely 
; to be needed.
; 
; Incredibly enough, the non-fractal work, though heavy, is still 
; caught up.  To no one's surprise, the secret is to not let it 
; fall behind.  The fractals are doing rather well also, and the 
; next one will appear in 24 hours.  I might return to the M-Mix4 
; formula, or I might stay with the HyperMandelbrot.  Until then, 
; take care, and are fractals animal, vegetable, or mineral?
