; Fractal visionaries:
;
; Today's fractal is another of those strange ones involving imaginary
; exponents but lacking the usual break along the negative x-axis.  When I
; first saw it, I thought of the vestments worn by priests of the Eastern
; Orthodox religion -- thus the name "ceremony".
;
; It's a quick 1-minute one, which I have posted to a.b.p.f. and a.f.p.
; for convenience.
;
; Now I must comment on yesterday's letter.  After viewing Kees' fractal
; web page and re-reading my letter, I feel I was too harsh on the really
; deep fractals.  Perhaps I was negative because I am hampered and
; frustrated in my deep exploration by an annoyingly slow old warhorse of
; a computer that is badly in need of a trip to pasture.  Actually, I have
; explored very little except the negative tail of the Z^2+C set, so I'm
; really not able to make a fair judgment of what lies deeply buried
; elsewhere.  When I get my new computer up and running later this year,
; I'll do some real exploration and be able to make an honest report
;
; For tomorrow's fractal, I think I'll stay with the Mytest series of
; formulas.  They always give something unexpected and interesting.
