start_date = dt.datetime(2001, 1, 1)
end_date = dt.datetime(2001, 12, 31)
dst = pysat.Instrument('sw', 'dst')
dst.load(date=start_date, end_date=end_date)
dst['dst'].plot(title=dst.meta['dst', dst.meta.labels.name], 
                ylabel=dst.meta['dst', dst.meta.labels.units])

I made some changes to partially address #59

I just made changes instead of requesting them. Tell me what you think @rstoneback

Fair enough. Good catch on the missing return. Adding a 'noaa' tag certainly makes it easy to extend to other data sources in the future. My only hesitation is it makes instantiating slightly harder but it does also make code written today more robust against future changes. Works for me.

I have a draft pull over at pysatTutorials. My initial thinking was it could be good to have demos of the various pysatSpaceWeather instruments over there. Here is a simple example for Dst, https://github.com/pysat/pysatTutorials/pull/4

Then I wondered how many we want to maintain, plus what is the balance against examples in the documentation. Topics for a telecom perhaps and outside this pull. Still, leaving this note here given the specific connection to dst. It is the reason I found the bug.
