; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; To find today's image I returned to the parent fractal created 
; by the four well-known irrational numbers.  I dug deep, very 
; deep indeed, to find the scene that graces (if that's what it 
; does) today's screen.  In fact, I am surprised that the image, 
; with its magnitude of over 10^13, holds together as well as it 
; does.
; 
; I doubt that the particular numbers which I used as parameters 
; add anything unique to the fractal.  I could have chosen any 
; values in the same range and probably come up with a similar 
; fractal.  But I like my fractals to have meaning, whatever 
; meaning is, so I chose sqrt(2), PI, the golden ratio, and 
; EPSILON.
; 
; Today's scene is located on a filament in a small bit of debris 
; just inland from the northwest coast of the main bay of the 
; parent fractal.  I gave it no name and no rating.  In order to 
; earn these attributes, an image must have a bit more effort 
; behind it.  The render time of under 10 minutes is admittedly a 
; slight drag, but relief for iteration pains may be found on the 
; FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; where the image is waiting to be downloaded.
; 
; Fractal lady and I did not make it back to Old Fractal Central 
; until after dark on Monday, but my sister, who looked after the 
; fractal cats while we were setting up New Fractal Central, said 
; that the weather was pleasant enough over the week end to give 
; the duo a very pleasant two afternoons in the yard.
; 
; My days will be more pleasant in a month or two when the move is 
; completed and things are up and running smoothly again.  Until 
; then, things will be a bit hectic.  With any luck at all, the 
; next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  In the meantime, take care, 
; and I wonder whether antimatter has anti-gravity?.
