; FOTD -- December 27, 2009 (Rating ?)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is another very quick one, but the speed lies in 
; the time I spent finding it.  Its calculation time of just under 
; 9 minutes is in no way exceptional.
; 
; The image is located in one of the 999 lobes surrounding a 
; larger minibrot of order 1000, which is shaped like a truncated 
; Mandelbrot set.  The parent fractal however is nothing more than 
; a grossly enlarged classic M-set.
; 
; I named the image "What Kind of Midget" because I have never 
; seen anything quite like it.  It appears more like a pile of 
; circular disks than a single minibrot.
; 
; Similar scenes lie deep in the hairline outlines, though most of 
; the action down there is far beyond resolution.
; 
; Totally puzzled, I gave the image a rating of a question mark.  
; If the mathematical interest is eliminated however, the artistic 
; value would be around a meager 4.
; 
; As always, the chore of calculation may be eliminated by viewing 
; the finished image on the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Clouds and showers, with a surprisingly mild temperature of 46F 
; 8C, brought a bit of contentment to the fractal cats here at 
; Fractal Central on Saturday.  All else was within reason.  The 
; next FOTD is due in about 8 hours, but there is a good chance it 
; may be late, and it could take several days to get everything 
; back on schedule.  Until whenever, take care, and be with wisdom.
