; FOTD -- March 22, 2005 (Rating 9)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Do not miss today's image.  That rating of a 9 is no mistake.  
; At least in my opinion, the image is one of the all-time best.  
; The iterated formula takes Z^(1.5), combines it with a bit of 
; Z^3, then adds C.  The resulting parent fractal consists of two 
; widely separated Mandelbrot sets connected by an open highway.  
; Today's image is located on the eastern shoulder of the highway, 
; very near the X-axis.
; 
; I named the image "Aqualung" when I had a vague impression of an 
; undersea scene.  The render time of 3-1/4 minutes will try no 
; one's patience, though it may try the ability of some S.O.T.A. 
; machines that do not do DOS.  Those with such fractally 
; challenged units may download the finished image from the FOTD 
; web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Cloudy skies, unusually cold temperatures and a few flakes of 
; snow kept the fractal cats safely inside all day Tuesday here at 
; Fractal Central.  The evening tuna was welcome indeed.
; 
; My day was exceptionally busy.  Today will likely be the same.  
; Hopefully, it will not be busy enough to keep the next FOTD from 
; appearing on schedule right here in 24 hours.  Until next time, 
; take care, and teleport with care.
