; FOTD -- February 24, 2014 (Rating A-7,M-7)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is a scene in an oversized parent Mandelbrot set 
; that is just beginning to be corrupted in its depths by Z^(2.5) 
; energies.  The image lies at the edge of the infinitely divided 
; main spike in the East Valley of the largest minibrot.
; 
; The name "Ants in the Fractal" came about when for some reason I 
; had the impression of spider webs and a colony of ants swarming 
; through the depths of the image.
; 
; The art rates a 7, mostly because I think the colors are kind of 
; classy.  The math rating of a 7 shows that the math trick is a 
; relatively new one.
; 
; The calculation time of only one minute will pass quickly once 
; the colors become visible.  And as always, calculation may be 
; avoided entirely by checking the image on the web sites.
; 
; The image is posted online at:

; 
; A mix of clouds and sun with a high temperature of freezing made 
; today typical of late February here at Fractal Central.  The 
; fractal cats enjoyed the sunny periods, but eventually became 
; annoyed by the frequent fade-outs and decided to settle on the 
; humans' couch.  Meanwhile, the humans had another in the endless 
; string of uneventful days.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted in the foreseeable future.  Until 
; then, take care, and it would take a space ship moving at the 
; speed of light four years to reach the nearest star, which is 
; four light-years away.  How long would it take a ship moving at 
; twice the speed of light to reach the same star?
