; FOTD -- January 05, 2007 (No Rating)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is a zoom into the area around the base of the 
; critter in yesterday's curious image.  Much to my satisfaction, 
; if not the satisfaction of all fractal fans, a quadratic midget 
; lies at the center.  This midget is surrounded by four more 
; stinging nettles, which inspired the name "Four More Stingers".
; 
; Most of the image's effect was created by calculating it with 
; the outside set to the 'tdis' option, which I believe colors the 
; points according to how far they travel before escaping.  Most 
; of the other outside options give images that are too chaotic, 
; except the traditional equal-iteration-bands method, which gives 
; an image that is too flat to have much interest.
; 
; Since today's image pretty much duplicates yesterday's, I gave 
; it no rating, though if I had rated it, I would probably have 
; given it a 7.  The render time of over 15 minutes is slow.  To 
; prevent impatience, I recommend visiting the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; and viewing the image there.
; 
; Another near perfect midwinter day was ignored by the fractal 
; cats here at New Fractal Central on Thursday.  Ignoring the 
; brilliant warm sun and temperature of 52F 11C, they spent the 
; day chasing each other up and down the hallway, and looking for 
; any left-over holiday stuff that still might be lying around.
; 
; My day was about average, a fact that has nothing at all wrong 
; with it.  The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until then, 
; take care, and a good fractal will never let you down.
