; FOTD -- November 13, 2006 (No Rating)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is named "Something Missing".  But what is it that 
; the image lacks?  A closer examination will reveal that the ex-
; pected 2-4-8... progression of elements leading to the midget is 
; missing.
; 
; Why the midget at the center must be so different is a mystery, 
; but this kind of thing happens all the time in the world of 
; fractals.  This lack of orderly progression seems to happen only 
; in fractals created by combining two or more powers of Z, and 
; the area where it happens is usually quite critical to the value 
; of the parameters.
; 
; In addition to the main midget, the image is filled with smaller 
; holes of all shapes and sizes.  I will further investigate a few 
; of these, and if any prove interesting, they might appear as a 
; future FOTD.
; 
; In keeping with the trend of late, I gave the image no rating.  
; The render time of 20 minutes is a bit slow.  Welcome relief is 
; at hand however on the FOTD web site, which may be accessed at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; where the finished image will be found posted and ready for 
; viewing.
; 
; A cold, raw, rainy day with a temperature of 43F 6C here at New 
; Fractal Central on Sunday did not bother the fractal cats, who 
; spent the day having fun with the new arrangement of bookshelves 
; in the hallway.  When treat time arrived, they were well pre-
; pared to be fished and cheesed.
; 
; My day was as good as might be expected considering the circum-
; stances.  The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until then, 
; take care, and see you soon.
