Thanks again Alan. I know I am abusing the term "sparkline" because I am not
embedding the visualization within text, but I am not sure what else to call
it. I do think that showing the time series not bound within a set of axes,
without labels, underscores that the time series is a "quick hit", just like
the histograms are. The main focus should be on the scatter plot, with the
marginal visualizations there to aid in quick assessment of distribution and
behavior over time. For true sparklines, here is 
http://bitworking.org/news/Sparklines_in_data_URIs_in_Python another nice
example in Python .
