Hmm... I found sample code here: http://www.dfanning.com/code_tips/
drizzling.html
that claims to do the job, but that doesn't work. The first problem
is that n_ind isn't defined. I set that to n_elements(h1)+1 and then
ran again. Then I got this:
% SPRSIN: Vector must have 6 elements: <FLOAT Array[3]>

Anyone happen to know what's going on here, or have a better
suggestion?
