how to draw this curve ??

[tex]Arg\xi (1/2+iz)[/tex]

however i am a bit ashamed because the Riemann Xi function is real for real 'z' so for ALL the real numbers the argument of the [tex]\xi(1/2+iz)[/tex] should be 0 ¡¡

In the graph in the middle you can barely see the hint of the orange horizontal line for the complex part that is lying on the x axis.
 


thanks a lot Bill... :)
