; FOTD -- June 02, 2011 (Rating 5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is more a demonstration of the 'fmod' feature of 
; Fractint than an actual fractal discovery.  The scene of the 
; action lies in a bit of satellite chaos circulating around the 
; rather impressive fractal that results when 0.2 part of Z^3 is 
; combined with Z^2 before C is added.
; 
; When rendered in the normal equal-iteration manner, the image 
; falls totally flat.  Re-rendering it with the outside set to 
; 'fmod' and the proximity set to 3 adds enough life to raise the 
; rating to a humble 5, just enough to qualify it for FOTD status, 
; at least on a fractalist's lazy day.
; 
; The name "FMOD to the Limit" indicates that the FMOD outside is 
; just about all there is to the image.  The calculation time of 
; 23 seconds means that little time will have wasted if the image 
; falls flat even with the FMOD outside.
; 
; The finished image is posted at:

; 
; I read in the morning paper of another cell-phone cancer scare, 
; but I see no need for concern.  All you wireless internet gadget 
; addicts out there can take comfort knowing that the phone compa-
; nies would certainly warn us voluntarily if using their wireless 
; gadgets is dangerous, just as the tobacco companies voluntarily 
; warned us that using their tobacco products is dangerous.
; 
; Another heat-wave type day prevailed here at Fractal central on 
; Wednesday.  The sun was scorching hot, while the temperature of 
; 95F 35C made things uncomfortable even in the shade.  The 
; fractal cats, seeking comfort, found it on the cool bare floor, 
; where they were happy all afternoon.
; 
; The humans had an uneventful day.  A similar day is expected 
; tomorrow.  The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until 
; then, take care, and what do those scare-monger scientists have 
; against wireless internet gadgets, which are so much fun?
