; 
; FOTD -- August 31, 2011 (Rating 9.5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; ALERT!  Do not be concerned when nothing appears at the top of 
; the screen when you start the parameter file.  The first 25 
; lines or so are black.
; 
; Today's image takes us on one final trip to the tip of the long 
; filament extending north from the large minibrot on the main 
; negative spike of the Mandelbrot set.  It shows an area of anti-
; bifurcation, though the resetting is largely hidden by the black 
; color around the edges of the frame.
; 
; The name "First Light From Vega" comes from a short story I 
; began about 20 years ago in my writing years, but abandoned when 
; I ran out of inspiration.  The name seems rather appropriate for 
; today's image however.
; 
; The image's rating of a 9-1/2 is the third consecutive rating at 
; this lofty level.  We're on some kind of a roll here in fractal 
; land.
; 
; The calculation time of 25-1/3 minutes is faster than the time 
; of some recent images, though still quite slow by long-term FOTD 
; standards.
; 
; Calculation may be avoided however by viewing the finished image 
; posted to the official FOTD web site at:
; 
;       <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html>
; 
; It may be viewed in high definition at:
; 
; <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html>
; 
; The original web site may be accessed at:
; 
;       <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/>
; 
; Today turned out to be a real prize-winner here at Fractal 
; Central.  The blue sky, puffy clouds and a temperature of 84F 
; 29C were just what the doctor ordered.  (Don't ask which 
; doctor.)  The fractal cats spent a good part of the day playing 
; chasing games among themselves, while the humans were too busy 
; to enjoy the near perfect weather.  The next FOTD will be posted 
; within 24 hours, which means it also could be late.  Until 
; whenever, take care, wait until the right time comes along, and 
; then solve the mysteries of existence.
