I know this is a joke, but of course these attractors are ordinary ones,
not strange in the usual mathematical sense.
My favorite attractor: enter any number into a scientific calculator
set in "degrees" mode and keep hitting "cos". In ten cycles or
less it becomes 0.9998477415310881129598107686798 or thereabouts,
depending on how many significant digits you have.
