Unfortunately I think that's probably a big enough topic for it's own talk (and I'd have to do quite a bit of boning-up on it to give the talk myself). Chris will correct me if I'm wrong, but, unlike NumPy, SciPy AFAIK isn't as "multi-purpose" as NumPy - a large part of the justification for giving a NumPy talk to a general audience is that NumPy's center - the ndarray object - was designed to provide n-dimensional array support outside of just mathematical applications; I'm not aware of any similar aspect of SciPy. At this point I'd have to say "probably another time."
