I haven't had a chance to use pandas yet, but I could bake it in somehow
and at least show how it fits into a bigger system.  It does so much, I
feel like someone (else) could do an entire talk on just that.

re: bearcart and rickshaw..  personally, I think bearcart is kind of a
silly little thing, if you look at what it's doing under the hood, but
rickshaw is a pretty great way to dumb down d3, I could probably work that
in too.
