; FOTD -- June 28, 2008 (Rating 7)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's strange new view of Seahorse Valley shows the valley as 
; it appears in perspective.  The center of the image is the point 
; at (C=-0.76+0i),(Z=-0.5+0i), which is a point of convergence of 
; many thick filaments.
; 
; I assume the large open area at the top of the frame, which has 
; a periodicity of 2, is part of the large period-2 bud, while the 
; open half-oval at right center is a period-17 bud on the north-
; east shore line of the period-2 bud.  But whatever this oval 
; area is, checking the orbits of the points in this image is very 
; interesting, and not surprisingly, the orbits frequently take 
; the shape of peanut holes.
; 
; The effect of looking down from a mountain top onto a blue sea-
; shore with many long thin coves is rather striking.  I tried to 
; intensify the effect with the coloring.  I also see the ghostly 
; outlines of several volcanoes near the shore line of the large 
; period-2 bud at the top.  But who knows what these things mean?
; 
; The rating of a 7 indicates that I kind of like the image.  The 
; calculation time of only 3-1/2 minutes indicates that quick 
; satisfaction will be found by running the included parameter 
; file.  Those who desire instant satisfaction will find fulfill-
; ment on the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; where the finished image is posted, already calculated.
; 
; Now I must track down and eliminate whatever it is that keeps 
; popping up on one of the computers, warning that a fatal trojan 
; horse virus is about to destroy it.  (That is unless I buy a 
; cure-all program at a certain web site.)
; 
; Near perfect summer conditions prevailed here at Fractal Central 
; on Saturday, with partly sunny skies and a temperature of 82F 
; 28C.  The fractal cats perked up when a passing tomcat left his 
; scent mark somewhere in the area, but soon settled down to do 
; what cats do best -- sleep.
; 
; My day was average: Sunday will likely be the same.  The next 
; FOTD will hopefully be posted on time in 8 hours or so.  There 
; are still two more trips to Seahorse Valley in the works.  Until 
; then, take care, and circulate among the big-time thinkers.
