Ways of Thinking

Associative thinking, and analogical thinking.

In the 2-dimensional Euclidean plane we can find
the intersection of two lines using the WAY of

   "two equations in two unknowns"

Similarly, we can take a differential equation 
and restrain it via a set of constraints and
get a certain solution; a diff set of constr's
gives a diff (or no) soln.

What happens when fractals collide?

That is, fractals as graphs of an equation.
