[ferret_users] problem in reading .mc files.

[yangxing zheng <yangxingz@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a problem about reading mc file from ferret.
The following is an example. The files are there. We
show data/variables, the variable temp exists. If I
make a plot by seting an individual l (set
region/l=11), it works. But if I want to plot time
series of temp, it says: ** netCDF error: Variable not
found.
    But variable temp is obvious there. Also if I plot
a time series of u and v (the grid is identical to
temp), it does work! Do you think what the major
problem is? I attached the .mc file to you as a
reference.
