; FOTD -- June 25, 2007 (Rating 6.5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image came about when I subtracted 0.4 part of Z^(2.25) 
; from 0.8 part of Z^(-1.25) and added C to create a parent 
; fractal that consists of two main Mandeloids, the southern one 
; far out of proportion, the northern one looking like a moth-
; eaten sweater.  Avoiding these obvious features, today's scene 
; is located in a trail of debris that stretches between the 
; Mandeloids.
; 
; I was undecided whether to rate today's image at a 6 or a 7, so 
; I split the difference and rated it a 6-1/2.  The name "Lake 
; Disappointment" came about when I failed to reveal all the 
; potential I thought the fractal had in it.  I think there are 
; actually several lakes of this name around the world, though at 
; the moment, I cannot say where they are located.
; 
; The calculation time of 1-1/2 minutes on the P2000 would stretch 
; to 8 minutes on the old worn-out P200.  But the fastest and most 
; convenient way of viewing the scene in this technologically 
; advanced electronic age is to go on-line to the FOTD web page at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; and sit in awe of the image as it fills your screen.
; 
; Another superb day graced Fractal Central on Sunday.  Full sun, 
; light winds and a temperature of 82F 28C can hardly be bettered 
; for outdoor summer activities.  I had my weekend's share of 
; activity on Saturday however, so I took it easy all day Sunday, 
; while the cats kept a sharp eye on us to be sure we would not 
; leave them alone again all day.  If things continue as planned, 
; the next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, 
; and where does the light that illuminates the objects in our 
; dreams come from?
