; ---------
; 
; FOTD -- July 27, 2013 (Rating A-5,M-6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; The name of today's image, "Total Obscuration", refers to the 
; parent fractal, not the image itself, which is anything but 
; totally obscured.  This parent consists of a group of blobs 
; roughly resembling the shape of the Mandelbrot set that it 
; largely but not quite totally obscures.  Today's scene lies at 
; the eastern edge of the largest remaining open area, just north 
; of the X-axis.
; 
; Perhaps the most incredible thing about the parent fractal is 
; that the infinitesimal 0.000000000000001 part of Z^(-100), when 
; added to 0.5 part of Z^2, could make such a difference.
; 
; The art rating of 5 and math rating of 6 indicate that very 
; little inspiration or effort were involved in the creation of 
; the image.  (I realize that an artist should never belittle his 
; work, but I have never been very big on hubris.)
; 
; The image will take about 5 minutes to calculate on the average 
; machine.  Take it and run the parameter file, or leave it and 
; check one of the web sites.
; 
; Check the finished image at:
; 
;       <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html>
; 
; and the hi-def variations at:
; 
; <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html>
; 
; Older back images may be seen at:
; 
;        <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/>
; 
; A partly cloudy, rather warm and muggy day with a temperature of 
; 84F 29C was interrupted in the afternoon by a heavy thunder 
; shower that dropped 1-1/4 inches, or 3.2cm of rain in 15 
; minutes.  The fractal cat watched the rain with interest, then 
; took a nap with even more interest.  The fractal humans got into 
; a discussion about conspiracy theories, some of which just might 
; be true despite making no sense at all.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted when I get a round tuit.  Until I 
; find the tuit, take care, and if aliens are flitting around in 
; our skies at will, breaking all kinds of physical laws, why does 
; it seem so irrational to believe in them?
