Just after I posted my question about how to plot lists of {x,y,z} data, I stumbled on the solution. The functions ScatterPlot3D and ListSurfacePlot3D in the package Graphics`Graphics3D` do an admirable job with one exception: They forget their default setting of BoxRatios->{1,1,.4} for data sets with lots of contrast or too many data points. Manually setting BoxRatios makes them display the plots in an acceptable manner. Forgettin to set the BoxRatios option manually results in some genuinely amusing plots.
