What is it this time!?!? I don't think I have ever seen Dr. J more bent out of shape. What is the problem this time?? Is Dr. J bent out of shape because I yelled "Bwwwaaahaahahahaha!" back at him? Well he deserved it, don't you think?
Anyway, In this image we see Dr. J's left arm is larger than his head! It is as if he is reaching out to grab me, drag me into Fractal Space and give me some kind of multidimensional thrashing. Well I don't think so.

Figure 1. Bent Out of Shape.
Tonight's fractal is the derivative of one originally by Paul Carlson. It is a truncated continued fraction. Paul states that it is the truncation that gives us the midgets. Of all the midgets I have seen, this is about as distorted as they come. In case you can't figure it out, the head (and 'spike') are aimed at a 45 degree angle to your left and the period 3 bud is the big one to you right. The little one in his center top is a period 5 bud. Hint, count the filaments!
So don't get bent out of shape, you might get hurt!

The parameter and formula files for Fractint are included below. Copy them
into a quickie.par file for quick loading into Fractint. For longer term
use, copy the frm: block into a FotN.frm file. But this time leave off the
'frm:' part. Then copy the rest (the par parts) into your FotN.par
file.
