; FOTD -- March 10, 2006 (Rating 4)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Moving to a new home is always a stressful thing, so yesterday 
; when fractal lady commented something about the sorry state of 
; the world and the Middle East in particular, I was in a testy 
; mood and wisely gave no reply.
; 
; What could I say.  As I see it, mankind is wandering in the 
; dark, hamstrung as he is by myth-based religions that can demon-
; strate none of the supernatural things they teach, and which 
; generate more violence than spirituality; and confused by a 
; material-based science that has yet to satisfactorily answer the 
; most basic question -- the question of what we are.
; 
; At least there is no question about fractals.  They are the 
; things numbers do when no one is looking.  I will leave it to 
; someone else to determine exactly what numbers are.
; 
; Today's image, for example, is a Julia set of the Z^(1.1)+C 
; Mandeloid as it appears 555 levels up the log spiral.  Because 
; of its simplicity, I have rated it at a 4.  I considered giving 
; it a name with the prefix 'penta' but finally decided that it is 
; not worth a name.  The catalog date will have to suffice.
; 
; The render time of under 2-1/2 minutes is about equal to the 
; time required to go online and download the finished GIF image 
; from the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; A spring-like day, with hazy sun, light winds and a temperature 
; of 61F 16C kept the fractal cats contented here at Old Fractal 
; Central on Thursday.  An extra serving of tuna made their day 
; complete.
; 
; My day was completely filled with work, but not so much as to 
; preclude a few minutes at the fractal machine.  If all goes 
; well, which is not at all certain, the next FOTD will appear in 
; 24 hours.  Until next time, take care, and be ready for whatever 
; comes your way.
