Hi,

I've been working with the Histogram[] function and want to include a legend. 
According to Mathematica's mystical ways the option Legend does not work with 
Histogram[]. Instead one needs to use a ChartLegend which has a different 
syntax and only a few options for placement (Top, Bottom, Center).

My question: "Is there an easy way to finely control the placement of a legend 
in Histogram[]?"

I've spent a couple of hours messing aroudn with Legend[], Inset[], Show[], 
ShowLegend[] and Graphics[], but to no avail. Any insights or suggestions 
would be welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Mike
