Yes, the alternatives I suggested in the last two paragraphs did not involve 
converting the data into an intermediate text form, though I'm not sure that 
was clear in my reply.  That would be the best way to go, if you have the time 
and resources for programming a solution.  Use of a netCDF interface to a 
scripting language such as python, perl, or ruby may be the easiest way to 
accomplish tasks like this, if you have learned one of these scripting 
languages previously ...
