I created my bitmap file within XWindows using XPaint, which is buggy
about producing good color maps.  I also used pixmap to rescale the
original, and several filters from netpbm to get the BMP file.  So the
color scheme is pretty bizarre.  I'll post the URLs of the original files,
plus some in-betweens when I get back to my desk Monday.
