In Plot[], the default tick labels for the Y axis have the trailing
zeros chopped off, then are right justified.  Here is a tty picture of
one I just did:

0.0175 +
       |
 0.015 +
       |
0.0125 +
       |
  0.01 +
       |
0.0075 +
       |
 0.005 +
       |
0.0025 +
       |
       +-------...

I'd much prefer a constant number of places past the decimal point.
Or if not that, at least line the decimal points up.  Does any one
know how to make this happen?

Thank you,
