precision is being lost #25

I believe some precision is being lost. I believe this is the case for all vars (including time), but it is especially evident when I need to compare the _FillValue to keep bogus vals from coming across the wire. The 1st value for a chl request happens to be the fill value, http://tds.glos.us/thredds/dodsC/MTRI-Ranger3.nc.ascii?chlorophyll[0]. So compare that w/ what the fill value is reported to me here, http://tds.glos.us/thredds/dodsC/MTRI-Ranger3.nc.das. I faked it in my code to simply compare the exponents.
