Example

>>> from obspy.clients.earthworm import Client
>>> client = Client("pubavo1.wr.usgs.gov", 16022)
>>> dt = UTCDateTime() - 15000  # now - 15000 seconds
>>> st = client.get_waveforms('AV', 'AKV', '', 'BHE', dt, dt + 10)
>>> st.plot()  
>>> st = client.get_waveforms('AV', 'AKV', '', 'BH*', dt, dt + 10)
>>> st.plot()
