This is perfect, except for one little thing...
My x-axis is time, and as new points are plotted, even though I'm
following the above recipe pretty closely, the x-tick spacing isn't
getting sorted out, so I end up with just a jumble as the tick labels
for the x-axis. Do you know why this might be?

This isn't a problem, I just run in a "while True" loop and leave it
running until I close the plot window.
Shame I get that horrible exception when I do close the plot window,
wish I knew how to make it stop :-S
