Eric,

You might recall that I spent a bit of time making a "stick plot" with 
quiver. I go to work OK, but I couldn't do exactly what I wanted. I 
think gets closer, but I"m not sure it quite gets there:

How exactly are the arrows scaled with scale_units='xy'? What I'd like 
is for the length of the arrow to the the y scale only -- the x scale it 
irrelevant (x is time, y is velocity). Can I do that with this?

+1

But if you're doing that, you may want to make more changes, also -- you 
might as well do them all at once.
