FYI, if you didn't see it, there are also usage docs in dataarray/doc
that you can build with sphinx that show a lot of the thinking and
examples (they spent time looking at pandas and larry).

One question that was asked of Wes, that I'd propose to you as well
Keith, is that if DataArray became part of NumPy, do you think you
could use it to work on top of for larry?
