I am getting closer to the results I want by modifying my days and hours
locators to read:
days = WeekdayLocator(byweekday=(MO, TU, WE, TH, FR))
hours = HourLocator(byhour=range(9,17,1))
but the xaxis still fills in times for the rest of each day interval,
but now only shows xtick labels for the period during the day i am
concerned with. Is there a way to limit the hours plotted on the xaxis
for each day interval?
