I don't understand the FrameLabel syntax used below.  According to the 
docs, the value for the option, when all 4 boundaries of the frame, 
etc., are to be labeled, is { {left, right}, {bottom, top} }.  For example:

   Graphics[Disk[],Frame->True,
       FrameLabel->{{"left","right"},{"bottom","top"}}]

The preceding puts those labels where their names lead you to expect. On 
the other hand, the following input...

   Graphics[Circle[],Frame->True,
        FrameLabel->{"left","right","bottom","top"}]

puts "left" on the bottom, "right" on the left, "bottom" on the top, and 
"top" on the right.

The only non-nested list syntax indicated in the More Information at 
ref/FrameLabel is of the form {bottom, left}.
