; May 8, 1997: Ring Around the Singularity
;
; singularity
;
; Fractal visionaries:
;
; Today's fractal again comes from my most prolific and unpredictable
; formula file -- mandnewt.frm.  Sometimes these formulas produce blank
; screens, sometimes they produce blank screens when the inside fill is
; set to a single color, but rich fractal images when the inside is set to
; bof60 or bof61, sometimes they produce Newton's images, sometimes they
; produce mandeloid images, and sometimes they produce a combination of
; all of the above.
;
; Today's fractal falls into the all of the above category.  To see how
; much of it is inside fill, redraw the image with the inside set to 0 and
; the passes set to t.  With the detail removed it will take only a few
; minutes.
;
; To add my part to the survey, let me say that I use Fractint about 80
; percent of the time, an old shareware program by Scott Jones called
; "Recursive Realm" about 15 percent of the time, and all the rest about 5
; percent of the time.
;
; I haven't yet had time to check most of the other fractals posted here,
; but things are beginning to slow down now businesswise, so over this
; weekend I'll see how many of the other posted parameter files I can find
; time to draw.
