Non-uniform 2D mesh questions

Barry-
  Yes, each block is a rectangular portion  of the domain. Not so small
though (more like 100 x 100 nodes)

   Yaron,

   Is each one of these "blocks" a small rectangular part of the
  domain (like a 4 by 5 set of nodes)? I don't understand what you
  want to do.
