; FOTD -- April 02, 2014 (Rating A-7,M-6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image lies in the parent fractal that results when 0.19 
; negative parts of Z^3 are combined with 0.9 negative parts of 
; Z^2 before C is added on each iteration.  This parent appears 
; as a Mandelbrot set with extra features along the positive and 
; negative X-axis.  Today's scene lies on the southern shore 
; line of one of the extra features just east of East Valley.
; 
; The name "Terraces Without End" refers to the terraced effect 
; created by the 'tdis' outside option.  The artistic worth of a 7 
; might be a little inflated, since we have been here often in the 
; past.  The math rating of a 6 seems about right.  Even though 
; the math trick is old stuff, it still strikes me as interesting.
; 
; The calculation time of 3-1/4 minutes borders on slowness.  I 
; guess that most fractals seem slow to some degree.  But the web 
; sites can bypass any trace of slowness.
; 
; So be one of the big-time thinkers!  Avoid the calculation wait 
; by viewing the finished image on the FOTD web sites at:

; 
; With a high temperature of 64F 18C and partly cloudy skies, 
; today was the most spring-like of the year so far.  The fractal 
; cats enjoyed the sun while it was shining and asked for food 
; when the clouds moved in.  The humans conquered another computer 
; internet glitch in the morning and then had an acceptable day.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted in a reasonable time.  Until 
; whenever, take care, and the only progressive goal more hopeless 
; than achieving a classless society is slowing climate change 
; (aka global warming) by passing legislation.
