[LINK] Romanesco or Broccoflower

The Broccoflower (a cross between a Broccoli and a Cauliflower) or is it a caucoli or a Romanesco? Whatever it is it is another example of mathematics in nature.
Now don't even get me started on this, I could go on for hours. I am convinced fractals hold the answer to the meaning of life. Ever since I first heard about them and mandelbrots and played rescue on fractalus(note:needs quicktime and no sound for first 1m20s - deliberately!) etc in the early 80's. I wont rant, just look yourself and think of all the other mathamatical objects in nature that you have never questioned before (snail shells, ferns, snowlakes, sea shells etc)...
See this mandelbrot movie...
