[ncl-talk] panel_33.ncl

[Mary Haley]

Hi Laura,

Try this script. I cleaned up the logic of the panelling to base the size
of the difference plots on the area used for the top set of plots.

I included a subset of the data file so you can run the modified script.

I'll include this on the panel page later. I'll also clean up the
panel_33.ncl to be more user friendly to modify.
