BTW, Coyote thinks this surface looks more like the
breast of a sleeping woman, but he thinks a LOT of
things look like that, so I don't know how much credence
to give it. But I have already fitted a plane surface
through the data and subtracted that. That removed
a great deal of tilt, but not all. Subsequent plane
surface fits and subtractions seem to make things worse,
for reasons I don't yet understand.

Thanks,

David
