; 
; FOTD -- November 08, 2012 (Rating 7.5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; The exponent of Z in the past few days' images has been somewhat 
; greater than two.  The exponent of today's image is 1.9, which 
; is somewhat less than two and also explains the name "Slightly 
; Deficient".
; 
; The parent fractal is basically shaped like a Mandelbrot set, as 
; are all such fractional fractals with an exponent close to 2.  
; This parent is rotated about 180 degrees, with two large 
; period-2 buds on the eastern side of the main bay, one north and 
; one south of the X-axis.  A large disconnected minibrot lies 
; just east of the southern bud, with a smaller disconnected 
; minibrot nearby.  Today's scene with its scrambled minibrot at 
; the center lies not too far from this smaller minibrot.
; 
; The rating of 7-1/2 is based on the colors.  The little math 
; interest is hardly enough to deserve a higher rating.  The 
; calculation time of 2-5/6 minutes is reasonable, though slower 
; than would be preferred.
; 
; Avoid all impatience by viewing the finished image on the 
; official web site at:
; 
;       <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html>
; 
; Check the glorious high-definition variations at:

; And don't forget the back images at:

;        <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/>
; 
; Decreasing clouds and increasing temperatures prevailed here at 
; Fractal Central today.  The high temperature of 46F +8C would 
; have felt warmer if the winds had not been so brisk.  The next 
; FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and see 
; the official web site for the closing remark.
