Visualizing our new data

We'll be submitting the HAO announcement paper this week, and have been tuning up the visualization code. First we have a part_of tree for the thorax illustrating the oldest "sensu" used for the a class/concept. Darker colors are older, the names of the internal concepts and the year of the reference are plotted on the tree &bsp; The zoomed detail of the second tree illustrates the number of muscles attached to the class/concept, hotter represent more attachments.  The count used is at the tip of the internal branch. The process needs some tweaking but for a first attempt on both we think it's pretty cool.
