This goes a long way, yes, but it's not quite there yet.  What I'd
like in addition, is to have a class, say 

  TPolySurface3D, 

so that you may plot the tuples as 2D surfaces in a 3D space, possibly
spline interpolated (In know I'm aksing a lot here). 

Finally, you'd also really like to be able to fit the data in the
graph, by right clicking on the surface.  

Yours,
