> Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

> Today's image takes us back to the East Valley of the parent
> Mandelbrot fractal that results when Z^(2.01) is calculated 1.5
> levels up the hyperladder with no function applied. (We very
> recently checked this same valley.) Since the parent is rotated
> about 90 degrees, its East Valley, which is shaped like a wedge,
> is on the west side. Today's image lies at the inner extremity
> of the chaos shooting inward from this wedge.
>
> The name "Cusps of Wonder" refers to the eight cusps surrounding
> the central minibrot. The artistic rating of an 8 indicates
> that I am rather satisfied with the gloomy atmosphere of the
> image. The math rating of 5.5 shows that there is little new
> stuff in the math.
>
> The calculation time of 2 minutes seems appropriate for the
> scene. faster satisfaction may be enjoyed by checking the web
> sites however.

> The day began with a temperature of 31F -0.5C and light snow,
> which piled up to an inch (2.5cm) by the time it ended at 7am.
> But by late morning the sky had cleared and by noon the sun had
> cleared away the snow. The fractal cats, who are showing signs
> of becoming the best of friends, watched the snowflakes in the
> early morning, then took it easy in the afternoon. One fractal
> human was glad the snow went away by itself; the other shrugged
> it off.

> The next FOTD will be posted who knows when. The best bet is 24
> hours from now, so until whenever, take care, and the globe is
> growing warmer, there is no doubt of that. The question is how
> much warming is due to man's activities. My guess is about
> 5-percent, but some zealous environmental activists claim that
> we are responsible for 99-percent of the warming. (If this is
> true, then I'm a sasquatch.)
