; ---------
; 
; FOTD -- October 09, 2012 (Rating A-7,M-5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's scene lies in the same Julibrot as the past two weeks' 
; images, though today we check a different critical Mandeloid, 
; the one that results when Z is initialized to -0.105...
; 
; The resulting parent fractal has a string of smaller distorted 
; minibrots stretched east along the positive X-axis.  Today's 
; scene lies northeast of a curious enlongated minibrot between 
; the largest minibrot and the eastern main bay.
; 
; The thing that first caught my eye is the unusually curved 
; filaments that fill the frame.  I decided on the name "Wandering 
; Tentacles" when I noticed the strange arrangement of these 
; filaments.
; 
; The math rating remains a 5, as it will until whenever I move on 
; to another parent Julibrot.  The art rating of a 7 could have 
; been a point or so higher if I had put more effort into the 
; coloring, which took only 5 minutes or so.
; 
; The calculation time of 1-1/3 minutes is reasonably fast for an 
; image created with such a slow formula.  But the web sites will 
; do it even faster.
; 
; To save time and effort check the images posted on the FOTD web 
; sites at:
; 
;       <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html>

; 
; They are very trendy.
; 
; A thickening layer of high clouds obscured most of the sun here 
; at Fractal Central today, while the temperature of 64F 19C kept 
; things feeling appropriately autumnal.  The fractal cat hid 
; himself under the chair cover for most of the afternoon.  The 
; humans made it through the day uneventfully.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted in a reasonably brief period of 
; time.  Until we determine how long a time can be considered 
; brief, take care, and continue to enjoy the fiction that passes 
; for the daily news reports.
