        <p>I want to get the chart below to transition such that
        the points on the lines appear to move up and down, not
        side to side.
        </p>
        <p>When transitioning to the smaller data-set especially,
        I'd like to not have a white gap appear before the lines
        take shape.
        </p>
        <p>Also, the grid-lines should slide into and out of
        existence, rather than appearing or disappearing.  Ideas?
