The name refers to the minibrot at the center, which is ; of the '3-1/2' variety, and 3-1/2 is halfway between 3 and 4. ; ; The parent fractal resembles two Mandelbrot sets partially over- ; lapping in a north-south direction. Today's image is located ; just off the positive X-axis in a very tiny valley in a tiny bud ; at the eastern extremity of the parent fractal. ; ; The magnitude of over 8*(10^13) stretches the conventional math ; routine a bit, but the resolution breakdown is barely noticeable. ; ; There is little more to be said about the rather pleasant image ; except that to see it, run the included parameter file and wait ; 3 minutes or go to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and view it there at once. ; ; Sunday here at Fractal Central featured heavy clouds and occa- ; sional sprinkles of rain. The high humidity and temperature ; of 82 28C made it feel like midsummer and made the fractal cats ; feel like stretching out on the living room rug. My day was ; peaceful enough despite a philosophical discussion with FL in ; the afternoon about the world's over-population problem. ; ; There will be no problem however preparing the FOTD for May 4. ; It is already in the bag, and will be set free in 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and the solution to the over-population ; problem is to eliminate the excess population now infesting the ; surface. Do I see anyone volunteering to be eliminated and help ; save the earth? The first 5-billion will be considered heroes. ; . . . what? . . . there are no volunteers.
