; FOTD -- May 05, 2013 (Rating 8)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image lies in the parent fractal that results when the 
; simple formula Z^(1.75)+C is iterated 9 levels up the multi-
; dimensional complex-logarithmic hyperspiral.  This fractal 
; consists of a large main bay split along the X-axis, with a 
; prominent disconnected smaller Mandeloid lying some distance to 
; the southeast.  Today's scene lies in a valley in this smaller 
; Mandeloid.
; 
; The name "Lopsided Basin" refers to the unbalanced nature of the 
; basin surrounding the central minibrot, where the iteration 
; count and therefore the appearance of the fractal elements on 
; the left and right sides are vastly different.
; 
; The rating of an 8 includes a bonus for the coloring effort, 
; though I'm not saying how much of the rating includes the bonus.
; 
; The calculation time of 1-2/3 minutes will pass fast enough to 
; keep boredom in the realm of remote possibilities.  Boredom may 
; be done away with altogether by viewing the image on one of the 
; FOTD web sites.
; 
; Accept the obvious.  Fractals are great!  For rational proof, 
; check the official FOTD web site at:
; 
;       <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html>
; 
; and if further proof is needed, check the high-definition 
; renderings at:
; 
; <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html>
; 
; The ultimate in proof may be found at:
; 
;        <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/>
; 
; where thousands of similar fractals are posted.
; 
; Cloudless skies prevailed all day on the 4th and 5th here at 
; Fractal Central, with a temperature of 72F 22C both days and 
; gentle breezes.  The fractal cat saw the sun outside and 
; wondered why it failed to reach his shelf.  The humans spent the 
; 4th working and the 5th relaxing.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted soon enough to prevent withdrawal 
; and with enough delay to prevent fractal overload.  Until 
; whenever, take care, and to me it seems as though we're so 
; obsessed with political correctness that we have no way to even 
; recognize the causes of our problems much less to accept the 
; causes and rationally discuss possible solutions.
