; FOTD -- September 11, 2014 (Rating A-8,M-8)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today is the 13th anniversary of the 9-11 attack, so in honor of 
; the grisly occasion I have found a fiery looking fractal.  I 
; named the image "Fiery Fingers" quite naturally.
; 
; The parent fractal is the Z^(1.00625)+C Mandeloid as it appears 
; only one turn up the complex hyperspiral.  This parent resembles 
; the typical bullet that is so common in fractals in this range 
; of exponents.  In fact, the exponent of Z in today's image, 
; 1.00625, is as close to unity as I have yet come.
; 
; In this ultra low range, very little chaos remains, but there is 
; some, and the next FOTD will show a scene in this unlikely 
; chaos.  Today's scene shows no chaos, but rather a field of 
; branch-cut discontinuities resembling a large fire.
; 
; The fiery effect is totally due to the coloring, which earns the 
; image an artistic value of an 8.  The math also earns an 8, due 
; to the ridiculously low value of the exponent of Z, which 
; produces a fractal anyway.
; 
; The calculation time is the big loser.  The 9-1/3 minutes 
; required to complete the image is far more than the scene is 
; worth.  But once again, the web sites rush to the rescue.
; 
; The official FOTD web site is now up and running.  It may be 
; accessed at:

; 
; The weather here at Fractal Central today was nondescript.  The 
; day brought some clouds, some sun, a few light sprinkles and a 
; temperature of 81F 77C.  It amounted to a day to soon be 
; forgotten.  The fractal cats forgot the day as soon as it began, 
; with Lida and Jasmine chasing each other up and down the hallway 
; most of the morning, while Nicholas watched the silly girls with 
; curiosity.
; 
; The next FOTD, which will be very chaotic, will be posted in a 
; day or two or three.  Until the moment of revelation arrives, 
; take care, and I want to be a version of me that exists in an 
; alternate reality where total peace prevails.
