Nobody has worked on the plotting stuff.  There are some new constants in a 
header file
which might have corrected some of this, or could be used to correct it.

I've raised a concern about the spelling of them, however.   I am wishing for 
something
more concise that tells an engineer what the constant is,

like

GAL_PER_LITER

If I see something like this, I know how to use it using unit cancellation.

GAL_TO_LITER_SCALING_FACTOR makes me want to retire, since it does not tell me 
how to use it.


Lorenzo, you probably have some good familiarity with the plotting circus to be 
of great
help there.
