; FOTD -- September 03, 2008 (Rating 4)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; A fractal with a rating of a 4 leaves much to be desired, but 
; it's still better than the 3-rated image that passed for 
; yesterday's FOTD.  The parent fractal was created by the formula 
; Z^(1.666667)+C as it appears at ground level of the logarithmic 
; ladder when no function is applied.
; 
; The most notable thing about the parent is its origin symmetry 
; -- a most unusual thing to appear in a Mandeloid.  Even more 
; interesting is the fact that many of its minibrots have a 
; similar symmetry.  Today's image shows one of these almost-
; symmetrical minibrots.
; 
; I named the image "Original Symmetry" because of this symmetry.  
; The rather average calculation time of 3-1/4 minutes should 
; cause little discomfort.  But if a problem should arise, the 
; completed GIF image is or soon will be available on the FOTD web 
; site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; The third consecutive perfect day passed uneventfully here at 
; Fractal Central on Tuesday.  The temperature of 86F 30C was a 
; bit on the warm side, but the unusually dry air kept it quite 
; comfortable.  The fractal cats, who might have seen the last of 
; the manx, spent most of the day chasing each other up and down 
; the hallway and getting into various other trouble.
; 
; My day was appropriately busy with non-fractal things.  The next 
; FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until then take care, and if 
; elected president, I will give everything to everybody.
