Bob,

The problem I have with this approach is that you have to give, in text, 
the min and max labels for the plot. This is clearly a place where 
errors can occur. It would be really great if all you had to do was to 
specify the min and max of the z-axis (color scale) and the legend 
automatically incorporated this.
