#D Line Puffer of width 33
3
#D
4
#D The width is defined by the length of the first free-standing line
5
#D in the puffer's plume.  The formula for this is 12n+1-s, where n is
6
#D the number of middle segments, and s is the number of cells covered
7
#D by the little 3-cell, 5-unit puff-suppressors on the upper edge of
8
#D this otherwise symmetrical pattern.
9
#D
10
#D Here, n=4, and s=6+5+5.  The Y-shaped puff-suppressors can have 5,
11
#D 6, or 7 units of spacing on between them, or between one of them and
12
#D the end.  You only need 2 or 3 such suppressors to produce any
13
#D puffer width.

15
#D Notice that placing random debris behind the puffer sometimes
16
#D affects the plume permanently - even turning it asymmetrical if the
17
#D debris was asymmetrical.  It also affects the period of the puffer,
18
#D that is, the number of generations it takes to repeat.  By
19
#D increasing the width, the period can be made to rise exponentially,
20
#D surpassing 10^6 at a width of only about 70.  But the most amazing
21
#D thing is that it has a half-life on the order of 10^8 generations.
