[ncl-talk] Missing values mapping as black

Hi Barry,
I think the problem is setting this resource "res at cnFillColors" while not
setting cnFillPalette/*cnSpanFillPalette, see the docs for cnFillColors. *I
think using res at cnFillPalette = cmap, should be a better choice than
res at cnFillColors.

Cheers,
Rashed
