; FOTD -- September 11, 2005 (Rating NA)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is a scene along the eastern shoreline of the main 
; bay of the fractal that results when the formula Z^(1.9)+C is 
; iterated by the MandelbrotBC2 formula.  I gave it no name and no 
; rating.  Its render time is a short 3-3/4 minutes, but even this 
; short time may be cut further by downloading the completed GIF 
; image from the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Most of today's discussion does not directly concern fractals, 
; and appears only in the philofractal version.
; 
; The weather on Saturday here at Fractal Central was quite 
; perfect.  But the fractal cats seemed unusually subdued.  They 
; must be mourning all the cats that perished in the disaster.  
; I'll be pondering various things for the rest of the day.  The 
; next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until then, take care and 
; all one needs to do is be himself.
