I'm including the code below to demonstrate the problem.  The top should have 
simtimedata (0 through 28) labeling the points.  As you can see, MATPLOTLIB 
just distributes those values evenly instead of assigning them properly.
Any ideas?
 
#!/usr/bin/env python
import numpy as np
from matplotlib import rc
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab
import re
from matplotlib.ticker import EngFormatter
xdat=np.arange(1,11)
simtimedata = np.array([0, 1, 5, 9, 13, 18, 21, 24, 25, 28])
idatanp = np.array([-1,0, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2])
print idatanp.shape
print simtimedata.shape
print xdat.shape
fig = plt.figure()

ax1 = fig.add_subplot(211)
ax1.plot(xdat,idatanp)
ax2 = fig.add_subplot(212)
#ax1.plot(x1, x1,'b--')
ax3 = ax2.twiny()
ax2.plot(xdat, idatanp.real,'k-o')
ax3.plot(simtimedata, idatanp,'k--',alpha=0)
ax2.set_title("time domain")
ax2.grid(True)
plt.show()
