Thank you Jeff.  I actually have a plot of terrain, and I would like to
plot 'var' on top of that with the terrain in the background.  So I really
want to make a shaded plot overlaid on a shaded plot.  Just using a
background value won't work for that.  It there any way to just eliminate
the lower values?
