; FOTD -- December 28, 2012 (Rating 8)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's parent fractal came from the formula (-Z)^(2.003)+C 
; rather than (+Z)^(2.003)+C.  This negative Z parent resembles 
; the more familiar positive Z, though it has no rectangles just 
; east of the main minibrot, and the East Valley has split apart.  
; Today's scene lies along the infinitely divided main stem, just 
; east of a smaller minibrot that lies well east of the large 
; minibrot.
; 
; The name "Into the Aether" refers to that hypothetical all-
; pervading stuff that was once assumed to be the medium that 
; transmits electromagnetic radiation.  Nowadays we know that 
; abstract waves of probablilty do the vibrating, though it's 
; fun to think that the aether actually exists, interpenetrating 
; the objects around us.  (And who knows?  Maybe something similar 
; [a neutrino field] actually does interpenetrate our space.)
; 
; The image rates an 8, which makes it the highest rated FOTD in 
; quite some time.  The parameter file finishes in 2 minutes on 
; most SOTA units, which makes it about average.  And the web 
; sites are always available to make life easier.
; 
; Get smart.  View the image on the official FOTD web site without 
; the need of calculating it.

; 
; And check the augmented variations at:

; 
; The back images are at:
; 
;        <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/>
; 
; Clouds prevailed here at FC today, though the lack of sun and 
; resulting chill was mitigated by the lack of wind and relatively 
; mild temperature of 34F +1C.  The fractal cat passed the day in 
; the southwest window, watching the world go by.  The fractal 
; humans passed the day closing out the old year and preparing for 
; another year.
; 
; The next FOTD image will be posted in the proper time.  Until 
; whenever, take care, and the first step in solving a problem is 
; to see that everyone agrees on what the problem is.
