; FOTD -- August 03, 2006 (Rating 6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; The parent fractal of today's image subtracts 0.1 part of Z^5 
; from one full part of Z^3, resulting in a small but interesting 
; Mandelbrot set lying just beyond the left border of the opening 
; screen.  Today's image lies in the East Valley of this M-set, 
; which is rotated 180 degrees, making East Valley actually a west 
; valley.
; 
; To add life to the image I rendered it with outside=tdis in 
; effect.  The unusually obvious square feature surrounding the 
; central midget inspired the name "A Square Deal".  When the time 
; to rate the image arrived, I looked at it and decided it was 
; just unusual enough to rate a slightly-above-average 6.
; 
; A 6-rated fractal is nothing to get excited about, but the calcu-
; lation time of just over 1 minute is so short that little effort 
; will have been wasted if the result fails to please.  And the 
; calculation may be escaped entirely by downloading the already 
; rendered image in GIF format from the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; More 99F 37C stifling heat here at Fractal Central on Wednesday 
; kept the fractal cats glad that they did not have to go outside. 
; It is far more pleasant chasing each other about in air-condi-
; tioned comfort.  But when Cassie finally cornered Nico, she 
; grabbed him and started kicking him in the head.  Luckily, Nico 
; has a thick head.
; 
; In my department, the work was slow but my energy was low.  The 
; two canceled each other out.  Unless the unexpected happens, as 
; it sometimes does, the next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until 
; then, take care, and walk and talk with fractals.
