... thats stopped bubbling and is starting to dry off :-(
Sorry, couldn't resist sharing this. It reminds me so much of some
pictures I took of hot spring mud pools in New Zealand (steamy little
place called Hell's Gate) when I was out there at Easter time. If all
goes well I'll be heading out for another visit to NZ in the new year
... :-)
It's an isosurface of a granite pattern that's been warped using the
variable scale pattern code I posted to p.t.s-f. Very slow to do - 12pps
on a PII-350.
Bye for now,
Mike Andrews.

Boiling mud? Ok... Instantly reminded me of elephant skin. But I'm color
blind so that might be a problem.

Moonskape city Arizona :-)
Looks like a planet that has an atmosphere but doesn't get
asteroid hits anymore.

I've seen Elephant skin upclose. Nope, not enough hair.
It almost reminds me of the "Melting Pot" spring at Yellowstone, but it's
been years since I saw it. I remember a lot of bubbles bursting up through
the mud, and fierce showers of hot mud as the bubbles popped at the surface.
Perhaps the New Zealand version is not so violent a process (cooler)?

It all depends on which particular mudpool you're looking at... anyway
they're hot enough to power a stomping tourism industry and a geo-thermal
power plant or two ;-) while you're here buy some genuine Maori carvings
made in china...

It's easy if you do it before you fire it.

If you're going to fire it, why bother? Just give it it's severance pay and
kick it out of the building I say.
