Deepayan,

    Oopps!  You are correct.  I read that entire entry (quite long) several
times and somehow missed it.  I guess I have the bad habit of going straight
to the examples to better understand how the code works, and there are no
examples that wrap print calls around the plots.
    Regardless, with it shown in 2 locations, clearly I was off my rocker...

                              Mike

The official inflation rate in Zimbabwe has soared to about 231 million
percent while thousands of Zimbabweans stand in line for their daily
allowance of about 2 cents a day -- from their own bank accounts. The
allowance does not afford them a half loaf of bread.
