; ---------
; 
; FOTD -- March 11, 2014 (Rating A-8.5,M-5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; In today's image we began with yesterday's parent fractal and 
; tweaked the exponent of Z from 3.001 to 3.01.  Then, instead of 
; checking the valley on the negative X-axis, we checked the 
; valley on the positive X-axis.  Today's image, which rates an 
; exceptional art value of 8-1/2, is the result.
; 
; The art rating is worth every half point, but the math aspect is 
; so overworked that I could rate it ho higher than a modest 5.
; 
; The name "Bits and Pieces" can mean whatever one wants it to 
; mean.  In today's image it refers to the semi-organized confetti 
; scattered throughout the frame.
; 
; The calculation time of 2 minutes will pass quickly enough once 
; the brilliant colors become apparent.  Visiting the web sites 
; can cut the wait even faster.

; 
; The official FOTD web site will be up to date very soon.
; 
; Lots of sunshine and a high temperature of 64F 18C made today 
; the most enjoyable day so far this year here at Fractal Central. 
; The older fractal cat enjoyed the sunshine, while the younger 
; continued her recovery.  The humans wished they had more time to 
; enjoy the sun.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted shortly.  Until shortly arrives, 
; take care, and I see that the second "Cosmos" series has hit the 
; TV after a wait of over 30 years.  I wonder if it will be just 
; another plug for rationalism and the scientific method.
