3D scatterplots? [message #3350]

Is there a way to do 3-D scatterplots in IDL? The chapter on CONTOUR and
SURFACE don't give any hints, and I've found nothing in the user's library.

Cute! How can I compress the cow down to the density of a neutron star?

Oh, boy, I can see all kinds of possibilities here.
Anybody know how to make a pig? How about a coyote? :-)

Try a pressure cooker. Not the density of a neutron star, maybe, but plenty
