Folks,
It occurred to me it would be great to get all these answers on
stackoverflow, and then when I looked, there is already a "csv to
netcdf question" at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22933855/convert-csv-to-netcdf/28914767#28914767
and I think all the answers so far are good additions.
I just added my answer.  Feel free to vote it up!  ;-)
