Along these same lines, is it possible to overlay/display a Cartesian grid on 
the surface, a la the Neuroimage '99 II paper (Fig 7)?  And is it possible to 
specify what the 'north pole' of this coordinate system is?  For example, if I 
wanted it to be at the posterior end of the STS.  I'm looking to do this on a 
flat patch. Thanks.
