Oh and welcome to the forum. What's your likes and dislikes for the liquid? :)

Love the wines of all blends/varieties and all years. If you can't answer that question, can you give me the exact equation (ie. an example) of a fractal without the algebraic terminology??

I thought wasted was the term for when you'd made that gap above the wine occupy the whole glass enough times. :wink:

Might be "head space" but seems strange in reference to glasses :?

I'm guessing you're after the Mandelbrot set.

But sorry, I don't know the name of the airspace in a glass.
