Bar or Column Charts With Weighted Width

For many of my reports that are on a monthly category basis, I would
like to reflect the weight of each month's significance by varying its
presence on the category axis.


Currently, I show the value for each month/category, but the width of
each month is the same. Keen business users know some months are more
significant than others, but it would be really great if I could depict
this distribution well.

Marimekko seems to cross paths with my need but I'm not really sure if
it is the solution. Can anyone suggest ideas?

Thanks Jon -- I like it.

The protocol is not that bad once you get used to it. I will probably
test the presentation out on a few of my savvy customers to see if they
get anything out of it.
